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>

What makes a parallelogram, a square, a rhombus, a rectangle, a kite and a trapezoid unique?
Oliga [24]
Parallelogram: It is a quadrilateral where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.

Square: All sides are congruent.

Rhombus: Is a four-sided shape where all sides have equal length. Also opposite sides are parallel and opposite angles are equal.

Rectangle: It is a quadrilateral which has two pairs of parallel and equal sides. It is also a parallelogram with its all four internal angles equal to right angles.

Kite: Is a quadrilateral whose four sides can be grouped into two pairs of equal-length sides that are adjacent to each other.

Trapezoid: Has a pair of parallel sides. is an Isosceles trapezoid when both angles coming from a parallel side are equal, and the sides that aren't parallel are equal in length

Which could be the approximate value of the correlation coefficient for the accompanying scatter plot?
LekaFEV [45]
The answer is D. It is a positive correlation so I can't be negative. It also is a strong correlation so it cannot be 0.21. So the answer is D.

A farmer has 96 apples to sell at the farmers market. She wants to bag the apples before going. How many ways can the farmer bag
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer and explanation:

Farmer's number of apples = 96 apples

Given that Farmer needs to bag the apples so that there are at least 4 apples in each bag(not less than 4 apples in each bag) and not more than 10 apples in each bag

And also all apples in each bag are equal

We need to find the numbers between 4 and 10(including 4 and 10) that can divide 96 without a remainder

4 can divide 96= 24

5 cannot divide 96 without remainder

6 can divide 96 =16

7 cannot divide 96 without remainder

8 can divide 96=12

9 cannot divide 96 without remainder

10 cannot divide 96 without remainder

From the above we see that the factors of 96 = 4, 6, 8 between 4 and 10

4 apples = 24 bags

6 apples = 16 bags

8 apples = 12 bags

Therefore, there can be 3 possible ways of having equal number of apples in each bag between 4 and 10 apples
