ANSWER
A.
[tex]{(x - 1)}^{2} [/tex]
EXPLANATION
The given expression is
[tex] {x}^{2} - 2x + 1[/tex]
We split the middle term to obtain,
[tex] {x}^{2} - x - x + 1[/tex]
Factor to obtain
[tex] x(x - 1) - 1(x - 1) [/tex]
Factor further to get,
[tex](x - 1)(x - 1)[/tex]
This is the same as;
[tex] {(x - 1)}^{2} [/tex]
The correct choice is A
Answer:
(x – 1)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 – 2x + 1
= x • x – 2x + 1 • 1
= x • x – 2(x • 1) + 1 • 1
= (x – 1)^2
