Question

If x=1/x-5 find: x-1/x

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of the expression $x - \frac{1}{x} = - 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given above that the value of

x = $\frac{1}{x} - 5$

And here we have to find the value of $x - \frac{1}{x}$

here we have to subtract $\frac{1}{x}$ on both the sides of RHS and LHS we get the below expression:

∴ x - $\frac{1}{x}$ = $\frac{1}{x} -\frac{1}{x} -5$

⇒ $x - \frac{1}{x} = - 5$

Hence the value of $x - \frac{1}{x} = - 5$
