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

Then, x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{D}}{2a}

Substitute the values in the given formula

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

x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{(5)^2-4(-2)(-3)}}{2(-2)}

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

<span>the equation -2x² + 5x -3=0, we notice that the sum of the coefficient equals 0, -2+5-3=0, if such a case happens, the solution of the previous equation will be, x=1 (always) and x= c/a, a=-2, and c=-3, so x=-3/-2, finally, the answer is: the 2 in the denominator should be -2</span>

In the figure below, angle y and angle x form vertical angles. Angle y forms a straight line with the 60° angle and the 70° angl
nirvana33 [79]

The equation that solve for x is as follows;

70 + 60 + x = 180

<h3 /><h3>How to find an angle?</h3>

The equation that can be used to find the measure of angle x can be found as follows:

60 + 70 + y = 180

Therefore,

130 + y = 180

subtract 130 from both sides

130 - 130 + y = 180 - 130

y = 50°

70 + 60 + x = 180

130 + x = 180

x = 180 - 130

x = 50°

x and y are  vertically opposite angles.

Can the sides of a triangle have lengths 3.5, 10.9, and 14.4?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle can NOT have those lengths because any side of a triangle has to have a length greater than the sum of the other two sides. In this case, 14.4, one of the sides, is not greater than the sum of the other two sides (which is also 14.4).

Hope this helps :)
