Alfred Wegener was a German meteorologist and geophysicist primarily known for his contribution on Continental Drift Theory in 1912. In his 16/25 part of his life, he completed his greatest contribution in science and lived 18 more years. On the other hand, Geologist Edward Bullard really admired Alfred Wegener for his contributions. Consequently, he wanted to know how long Alfred Wegener lived, so he decided to compute for it using the concepts in polynomial. However, Bullard noticed that there was an error in his solution shown below: Geologist Edward Bullard's solution: Let x = years Wegener lived x+ 18 = x 18 = x -x 18 = x (l8) =x 64 =x Alfred Wegener lived in 64.1 Help Geologist Edward Bullard find the error, and explain to him how to solve the problem.
