Detailed steps of matching method and undetermined coefficient method (undetermined coefficient method should have examples) Given the function f (x-1) = x ^ 2-3x + 2, find f (x + 1) Please use the matching method to list the detailed steps, because I don't know how 2 - (x-1) in step f (x + 1) ^ 2 - (x-1) comes from There are also the detailed steps of undetermined coefficient method (please work out an example for me) It's really troublesome. But thank you for 80
The known function f (x-1) = x ^ 2-3x + 2
F (x-1) = (x ^ 2-2x + 1) - x + 1 = (x-1) ^ 2 - (x-1) (this 2 is square)
So, let X-1 = a, then f (a) = a ^ 2-a
Then we can substitute a = x + 1
f(x+1)=x^2+x
Undetermined coefficient method
Let f (x-1) = a (x-1) ^ 2 + B (x-1) + C
Expansion: F (x-1) = ax ^ 2 - (2a-b) x + A-B + C
Compared with the formula F (x-1) = x ^ 2-3x + 2
The results show that a = 1, 2a-b = 3, A-B + C = 2
a=1 b=-1 c=0
So, f (x-1) = (x-1) ^ 2 - (x-1)
Same as above
