Functions
This problem really frustrated me, even with knowing the answer, I didn't know it worked out.
For which of the following functions f is f(x) = f(1-x) for all x?
f(x) = 1-x
f(x) = 1 - x^2
f(x) = x^2 - (1-x)^2
f(x) = x^2*(1-x)^2
f(x) = x / (1-x)
The answer is the 4th one. But I still don't see how.
