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>
