Answer:

x=3.4

y=-6.75

Step-by-step explanation:

seraphim [82]

Answer:

$x=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2-2x+1=0\\$

We will start by using the quadratic formula.

$\frac{-(-2)+-\sqrt{(-2)^2-4(1)(1)}}{2(1)}$

We will simplify that and get:

$\frac{-(-2)}{2(1)}$

So our answers would be:

$x=1$
