Answer:
Hey Mate,
If the question is x+1 whole divided by x ,then:
x+1 = -2x (cross-multiplication)
1 = -2x-x
1 = -3x
x = -1/3
OR
If the question is x+ 1/x then,
x^2 + 1 whole divided by x = -2
x^2 + 1 = -2x (cross-multiplication)
x^2 + 2x + 1 =0 (which will become a quadratic equation)
x^2 + 1x + 1x+1=0
Taking common,
x(x+1)+ 1(x+1)=0
(x+1) (x+1) = 0
Therefore,
x= -1
Hope it helps...
