1-6x+9x^{2}+\left(2x-1\right)^{2}=13\left(x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(1-3x\right)^{2}.
1-6x+9x^{2}+4x^{2}-4x+1=13\left(x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(2x-1\right)^{2}.
1-6x+13x^{2}-4x+1=13\left(x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)
Combine 9x^{2} and 4x^{2} to get 13x^{2}.
1-10x+13x^{2}+1=13\left(x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)
Combine -6x and -4x to get -10x.
2-10x+13x^{2}=13\left(x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)
Add 1 and 1 to get 2.
2-10x+13x^{2}=\left(13x-13\right)\left(x+1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 13 by x-1.
2-10x+13x^{2}=13x^{2}-13
Use the distributive property to multiply 13x-13 by x+1 and combine like terms.
2-10x+13x^{2}-13x^{2}=-13
Subtract 13x^{2} from both sides.
2-10x=-13
Combine 13x^{2} and -13x^{2} to get 0.
-10x=-13-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
-10x=-15
Subtract 2 from -13 to get -15.
x=\frac{-15}{-10}
Divide both sides by -10.
x=\frac{3}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-15}{-10} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -5.
