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

How many three-digit phone prefixes that are used to represent a particular geographic area are possible that have no 0 or 1 in
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The number of possible three-digit phone prefixes that are used to represent a particular geographic area is 640.

Step-by-step explanation:

The phone prefixes used to represent a particular geographic area are a 3 digit code consisting of numbers from 0 to 9.

The prefix code are of the form: <u>x</u> <u>x</u> <u>x</u>

Condition: The first or the second place cannot take values 0 or 1.

Then the first place can be occupied by the remaining 8 digits.

Similarly the second place can also be occupied by the remaining 8 digits.

And the third place can be occupied by any of the 10 digits.

So the number of ways to construct a phone prefix for any area is:

Possible\ number\ of\ phone\ prefixes=8\times8\times10=640

Thus, the number of phone prefixes possible for any area is 640.

Emma took a taxi from the airport to her house.
Natali5045456 [20]
Hi there! The answer is 10 miles.

Let the distance be represented by b.
The cost if the ride will therefore be
$5 + ( $3.70 × d )

We end up with the following equation
5 + 3.7d = 42

Subtract 5 from both sides.
3.7d = 37

Divide both sides by 10.
d =  \frac{37}{3.7}  = 10

Therefore, Emma had a taxi ride of 10 miles.
