Y = (x2 - 2x + 1) y = (x - 1)(x - 1)
Prove that the following functions are equivalent through algebraic and numerical proof

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x² - 2x + 1)

y = (x - 1)(x - 1)

First, recognize that the first equation is fully simplified/expanded already.

Now, we should solve for the second equation.

FOIL the expressions: first–outer–inner–last

(x - 1)(x - 1)

F: x²

O: -x

I: -x

L: 1

Combine these terms.

x² - x - x + 1

x² - 2x + 1

Notice that this equation is identical to our first equation. Therefore, the functions are equivalent.

Hope this helps!

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
