Hi, i understand this part:
x^2 - 2x +1 = -x +1
x^2 - 2x + x + 1 - 1= 0
x^2 -x = 0
The answer says:
x= 0 or x -1 = 0
x= 0 or x=1
Can someone explain why x are these numbers and what the process behind getting these numbers is?
Well..
I don't know if im right or not... :D
But, some of the "x"s cancel out, or are brought together, so instead of a bunch of "x"s it's a smaller amount of them.
Hopefully I was able to help you out!! :)
Please let me know if you still don't understand :)
I don't know if this is the box where i reply, but ill try.
I am still don't quite understand how the "x"'s end up with those answers.
If you don't mind, do try to explain a bit more detailed.
Thank you :)
Well.. When I did it i got..
X=1
AND
x=0
Because you're wanting to distribute them. Man, this is confusing!
X^2 - x =0 is
x(x-1) = 0 The only ways this can equal 0 is if 'x' = 0 or x-1 = 0 (when x=1)
so x = 0 or 1
