Answer:
The answer to the question asked is:
( x + 1 ) / x = ( 7 ± √21 ) / 2
The answer to the question I think might have been meant is:
x + 1/x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
( x² - x + 1 ) / ( x² + x + 1 ) = 2 / 3
=> 3 ( x² - x + 1 ) = 2 ( x² + x + 1 )
=> 3x² - 3x + 3 = 2x² + 2x + 2
=> x² + 1 = 5x
=> x + 1/x = 5
In case this is what you actually needed (I have a hunch).
Otherwise, let's continue...
x² - 5x + 1 = 0
=> (1/x)² - 5(1/x) + 1 = 0
=> 1/x = ( 5 ± √( 5² - 4 ) ) / 2
=> 1/x = ( 5 ± √21 ) / 2
=> ( x + 1 ) / x = 1 + 1/x = ( 7 ± √21 ) / 2
