    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
