You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given:
.
.
Let's transpose this just to reverse the sides and get:
.
.
Subtract from both sides:
.
.
Now factor from both terms on the left side to get:
.
.
This equation will be true if either factor on the left side is zero because multiplication
by a zero on the left side makes the entire left side equal to zero and therefore equal
to the right side.
.
So we can say that either or will result in the equation being
satisfied.
.
To have you must have x equal zero.
.
And to have add 1 to both sides and you get
.
So the two solutions to this problem are x = 1 and x = 0.
.
If you put each of these answers into the original equation you will see
that the left side equals the right side. When x equals zero the equation becomes
0 = 0 and when x = 1 the equation becomes 1 = 1. So both 0 and 1 check as answers to
the problem.
.
Hope this helps you to understand the problem and how you can get a solution.
