Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-1 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -1 + x = 0 Solving -1 + x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -1 + 1 + x = 0 + 1 Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0 0 + x = 0 + 1 x = 0 + 1 Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1 x = 1 Simplifying x = 1

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(1 + -2x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 1 + -2x = 0 Solving 1 + -2x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + -2x = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + -2x = 0 + -1 -2x = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1 -2x = -1 Divide each side by '-2'. x = 0.5 Simplifying x = 0.5

Solution

x = {1, 0.5}
