Simplify
More Steps

Evaluate
(x−1)×−1(x−2)2−x
Divide the terms
(x−1)(−(x−2)2)−x
Multiply the terms
−(x−1)(x−2)2−x
Rewrite the expression
(−x+1)(x−2)2−x
(−x+1)(x−2)2−x<0
Rearrange the terms
−x3+5x2−9x+4<0
Rewrite the expression
−x3+5x2−9x+4=0
Find the critical values by solving the corresponding equation
x≈0.64679
Determine the test intervals using the critical values
x<0.64679x>0.64679
Choose a value form each interval
x1=0x2=2
To determine if x<0.64679 is the solution to the inequality,test if the chosen value x=0 satisfies the initial inequality
