Equivalent Definition and 1000 Threads

Hello, For thévenin equivalent circuits, I thought current sources are replaced with open circuits and voltage sources are replaced with short circuits. In this video, the guy replaces both with open circuits, so I am not understanding how that works. Because of all the different...

F(x) = (x^2 - x)/(x-1) G(x)= x I factored x^2-x and canceled denominator of f(x) which simplify to x So it does equal x does not now matter that in original equation x cannot = 1 otherwise denominator = 0 I'm just making sure they are = and but maybe not equivalent. Trying to learn more of...
