Answer:

He should have moved to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ken moved 7 to the right which is correct because he needs to get 7º higher, but when he moved 2º to the left that would be a temperature decrease which is is incorrect.

Answer:

Sample Response: Ken’s error was showing a decrease in temperature by moving 2 units left on the number line. He should have moved 2 units right to represent an increase in temperature of 2°C.

Harry is trying to solve the equation 0 = 2x2 − x − 6 using the quadratic formula. He has made an error in one of the steps belo
bija089 [108]
<h3><u>Given</u> - </h3>

➙ a quadratic equation in which Harry lagged due to an error made by him, 2x² - x - 6= 0

<h3><u>To solve</u> - </h3>

➙ the given quadratic equation.

<h3><u>Concept applied</u> - </h3>

➙ We will apply the quadratic formula as given in the question. So, let's study about quadratic equation first because we are supposed to apply the formula in equation.

What is quadratic equation?

➙ A quadratic equation in the variable x is an equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0, where a, b, c are real numbers, a ≠ 0.

Now, what is quadratic formula?

➙The roots of a quadratic equation ax + bx + c = 0 are given by \sf{\:\frac{-b \pm\: \sqrt {b ^ 2 - 4ac}}{2a}} provided b - 4ac ≥ 0.

<h3><u>Solution</u> - </h3>

here as per the given quadratic equation,

a = 2, b = -1 and c = -6

putting in the formula,

\implies\sf{x=\frac{-(-1) \pm\: \sqrt {(-1)^2 - 4(2)(-6)}}{2(2)}}

\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 \pm\: \sqrt {1+48}}{4}}

\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 \pm\: \sqrt {49}}{4}}

\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 \pm\: 7}{4}}

Solving one by one,

\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 + \: 7}{4}}

\implies\sf{x=\frac{8}{4}}

\implies{\boxed{\bf{x=2}}}

________________

\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 - \: 7}{4}}

\implies\sf{x=\frac{-6}{4}}

\implies{\boxed{\bf{x=\frac{-3}{2}}}}

________________________________

<em><u>Note</u> - Hey dear user!! You haven't provided the solution which was solved by Harry (A.T.Q). Please go through the solution as it will help you to find the error done by Harry.</em>

<em>________________________________</em>

Hope it helps!! (:

For this case we have the following solution.
 x = gallons of water to be added
 For the 10% solution we have:
 0.1 * 8 = 0.8
 Then, for 5% we have:
 (0.8 / x + 8) = 0.05
 Rewriting:
 (0.8 / x + 8) = (5/100)
 Answer:
 An equation can be used to find x, the humber of gallons of water he should add is:
 (0.8 / x + 8) = (5/100)
