this is what i have so far
x⁴-2x+1=1-x^2
x⁴-2x+x^2=0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if i take out an x im left with \[x(x ^{3}+x ^{2}-2)=0\]

Two points of intersection.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
there's three points
myininaya (myininaya):
x(x^3+x-2)=0

(0,1)
and
(1,0)
and
(0,0)
myininaya (myininaya):
x=0 or x^3+x-2=0
well if x=1 we see that works
1 | 1 0 1 -2
| 1 1 2
--------------------
1 1 2 | 0
so we have x^2+x+2=0
we can use quadratic formula here

okay i'm good now. i didnt think about that. thanks
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think but keep going please
myininaya (myininaya):
\[x=\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1-4(1)(2)}}2\]
but that is not real

so we only have x=0 and x=1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
why not just grapgh it?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what happened to your x^3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
need to show work bass
myininaya (myininaya):
if x=0 then y=1
if x=1 then y=0

remember i divided
myininaya (myininaya):
ok i will do it on paper k?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what happened to you x^3
myininaya (myininaya):
i divided
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Wow, just neglect my answer. I graphed it and got the correct answers. If you don't believe it, its your loss mate.

but it was originally x^4
