Answer:

The 2 in the numerator should be -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a quadratic equation

-2x^2+5x-3=0

We have to find error made by Zacharias.

We have a=-2,b=5,c=-3

Quadratic formula : D=b^2-4ac

Substitute the values in the given formula

D=(5)^2-4(-2)(-3)

Therefore, the 2 in the numerator should be -2 .This is the error made by Zacharias.

The equation 0 = -2x2 5x - 3 was the quadratic formula that Zacharias used. However, he started substituting as:
Quadratic formula as x = ; substitution as x

The errors he made: he mistakenly used the negative (-) and postive (+)
* -5 should have been 5
* 52 should have been -52
* both the numerator and the denominator should have been -2 instead of 2

D, Because 7/15 + 9/15 is 16/15 + 4/15 =20/15 which equals 1 5/15 which turns into 1 1/3
A, 1/21 + 2/21 = 3/21 and that equals 1/7

C, 3/14+3/12 turns into 3/14+5/14= 10/14 - 8/14= 2/14=1/7

Answer:

answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

we must calculate it from this equation :

x³ -9x²+27x-25 then

${2}^{3} -( 9 \times 4 )+ (27 \times 2) - 25 = 1$
