Answer 17

\[x^2-2x+1\]to factor, see what two numbers add up to be \(-2\) and multiply to give you \(1\):\[(x~~~~~~)(x~~~~~~)\]*note: we can only write the factors like this if the coeffcient in fron of the first term is 1

in this case the two numbers are -1 and -1
so lets write it like that:\[(x-1)(x-1)\]which is the same thing as \[(x-1)^2\]
