Does one equal to zero?

Sagot :

Answer: 1 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The following is a “proof” that one equals zero.

Consider two non-zero numbers x and y such that

x = y.

Then x2 = xy.

Subtract the same thing from both sides:

x2 – y2 = xy – y2.

Dividing by (x-y), obtain

x + y = y.

Since x = y, we see that

2 y = y.

Thus 2 = 1, since we started with y nonzero.

Subtracting 1 from both sides,

Answer:

Yes, one does equal to zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider two non-zero numbers x and y such that

x = y. 

Then x2 = xy. 

Subtract the same thing from both sides: 

x^2 – y^2= xy – y^2.

Dividing by (x-y), obtain 

x + y = y. 

Since x = y, we see that 

2 y = y. 

Thus 2 = 1, since we started with y nonzero. 

Subtracting 1 from both sides, 

1 = 0.

I am not good at explaining this type of question. so I copied and pasted the explanation part. I hope this helps
