\frac{10\left(-x+1\right)^{2}}{10}=\frac{8.1}{10}
Divide both sides by 10.
\left(-x+1\right)^{2}=\frac{8.1}{10}
Dividing by 10 undoes the multiplication by 10.
\left(-x+1\right)^{2}=0.81
Divide 8.1 by 10.
-x+1=\frac{9}{10} -x+1=-\frac{9}{10}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
-x+1-1=\frac{9}{10}-1 -x+1-1=-\frac{9}{10}-1
Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation.
-x=\frac{9}{10}-1 -x=-\frac{9}{10}-1
Subtracting 1 from itself leaves 0.
-x=-\frac{1}{10}
Subtract 1 from \frac{9}{10}.
-x=-\frac{19}{10}
Subtract 1 from -\frac{9}{10}.
\frac{-x}{-1}=-\frac{\frac{1}{10}}{-1} \frac{-x}{-1}=-\frac{\frac{19}{10}}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x=-\frac{\frac{1}{10}}{-1} x=-\frac{\frac{19}{10}}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
x=\frac{1}{10}
Divide -\frac{1}{10} by -1.
x=\frac{19}{10}
Divide -\frac{19}{10} by -1.
x=\frac{1}{10} x=\frac{19}{10}
The equation is now solved.
