Solve (y-1)(y 1)(y-1) - Socratic AI (ScanMath)

Evaluate

(y - 1) (y \times 1) (y - 1)

Remove the parentheses

Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same

(y - 1) y (y - 1)

Multiply the first two terms

y (y - 1) (y - 1)

Multiply the terms

y (y - 1)^{2}

Expand the expression

More Steps

More Steps

y^{3} - y \times 2 y + y \times 1

Multiply the terms

More Steps

y^{3} - 2 y^{2} + y \times 1
