Solution for (1-a)(1-a)(-a)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(1 + -1a)(1 + -1a)(-1a) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (-1a)
(1 + -1a)(1 + -1a) * -1a = 0

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
-1a(1 + -1a)(1 + -1a) = 0

Multiply (1 + -1a) * (1 + -1a)
-1a(1(1 + -1a) + -1a * (1 + -1a)) = 0
-1a((1 * 1 + -1a * 1) + -1a * (1 + -1a)) = 0
-1a((1 + -1a) + -1a * (1 + -1a)) = 0
-1a(1 + -1a + (1 * -1a + -1a * -1a)) = 0
-1a(1 + -1a + (-1a + 1a2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1a + -1a = -2a
-1a(1 + -2a + 1a2) = 0
(1 * -1a + -2a * -1a + 1a2 * -1a) = 0
(-1a + 2a2 + -1a3) = 0

Solving
-1a + 2a2 + -1a3 = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'a'.
a(-1 + 2a + -1a2) = 0

Factor a trinomial.
a((-1 + a)(1 + -1a)) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'a' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying a = 0 Solving a = 0 Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying a = 0

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(-1 + a)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -1 + a = 0 Solving -1 + a = 0 Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -1 + 1 + a = 0 + 1 Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0 0 + a = 0 + 1 a = 0 + 1 Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1 a = 1 Simplifying a = 1

Subproblem 3

Set the factor '(1 + -1a)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 1 + -1a = 0 Solving 1 + -1a = 0 Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + -1a = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + -1a = 0 + -1 -1a = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1 -1a = -1 Divide each side by '-1'. a = 1 Simplifying a = 1

Solution

a = {0, 1, 1}
