make x the subject

Answer 1

$~~~~~~~~y = 1- \sqrt{ 1- \dfrac 2x}\\\\\\\implies \sqrt{ 1- \dfrac 2x} = 1 - y\\\\\\\implies 1 - \dfrac 2x = (1 -y)^2~~~~~~~~~~~~~;[\text{Square on both sides}]\\\\\\\implies \dfrac 2x = 1-(1-y)^2\\\\\\\implies \dfrac{1}{x} = \dfrac{1-(1-2y+y^2)}{2}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{2}{1-1+2y-y^2}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{2}{2y-y^2}\\\\\\\implies x = -\dfrac{2}{y(y-2)}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;[y\neq 0,~ y \neq 2]$
