Answer:

Shown below

Explanation:

I'll just remove f(x) because it's not necessary right now.

Square (x-1). Remember that squaring 2 value equations can use the equation
x^(2) + 2xy + y^(2)

Using the equation above, we get
x^(2) - 2x + 1 , also can be found by foiling.


x^(2) + 2x + 1 + 2 = x^(2) +2x+3

And just like that, we're done
