Answer:

Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.

The suns gravity pulls on the planets, just like how Earths gravity pulls on objects when we drop them.

$f(x) = {x}^{2} - 3x + 2$

put x = (-1)

$f( - 1) = {( - 1)}^{2} - 3 \times ( - 1) + 2 \\ \\ 1 + 3 + 2 \\ \\ 6.$

put x = (z)

$f(z) = {z}^{2} - 3 \times z + 2 \\ \\ {z}^{2} - 3z + 2 \\ \\ {z}^{2} - 2z - z + 2 \\ \\ z(z - 2) - 1(z - 2) \\ \\ (z - 1)( z -2 ) \\ \\ (z - 1) = 0 \: \: , \: \: (z - 2) = 0\\ \\ z = 1 \:, \: 2$

put x = (x+1)

$f(x + 1) = {x}^{2} - 3x + 2 \\ \\ {(x + 1)}^{2} - 3 (x + 1) + 2 \\ \\ {x}^{2} + 1 + 2x - 3x - 3 + 2 \\ \\ {x}^{2} - x \\ \\ x(x - 1) \\ \\ x(x - 1) = 0 \\ \\ x - 1 = \frac{0}{x} \\ \\ x - 1 = 0 \\ \\ x = 1.$

put x = (√2 + 1 )

$f( \sqrt{2} + 1) = {x}^{2} - 3x + 2 \\ \\ {( \sqrt{2} + 1) }^{2} - 3( \sqrt{2} + 1) + 2 \\ \\ 2 + 1 + 2\sqrt{2} - 3 \sqrt{2} - 3 + 2 \\ \\ 3 - 1 \sqrt{2} - 1 \\ \\ 2 - \sqrt{2} \\ \\ 2 - 1.4 (optional \: \: \: steps)\\ \\ 0.6 \: \:$
