(y-2)(-2+1-y)=

Solution for (y-2)(-2+1-y)= equation:

Simplifying
(y + -2)(-2 + 1 + -1y) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + y)(-2 + 1 + -1y) = 0

Combine like terms: -2 + 1 = -1
(-2 + y)(-1 + -1y) = 0

Multiply (-2 + y) * (-1 + -1y)
(-2(-1 + -1y) + y(-1 + -1y)) = 0
((-1 * -2 + -1y * -2) + y(-1 + -1y)) = 0
((2 + 2y) + y(-1 + -1y)) = 0
(2 + 2y + (-1 * y + -1y * y)) = 0
(2 + 2y + (-1y + -1y2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 2y + -1y = 1y
(2 + 1y + -1y2) = 0

Solving
2 + 1y + -1y2 = 0

Solving for variable 'y'.

Factor a trinomial.

y = 2

Simplifying
y = 2
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + y)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + y = 0

Solving
1 + y = 0

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + y = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + y = 0 + -1
y = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
y = -1

Simplifying
y = -1
Solution
y = {2, -1}
