Question

x/x+1+x+1/x=2*1/12

it's from the chapter quadratic equations with one variable

​

Answer 1

(i) (x + 1)2 = 2(x – 3)

(ii) x2 – 2x = (–2)(3 – x)

(iii) (x – 2)(x + 1) = (x – 1)(x + 3)

(iv) (x – 3)(2x + 1) = x(x + 5)

(v) (2x – 1) (x – 3) – (x + 5) (x – 1)

(vi) x2 + 3x +1 = (x – 2)2

(vii) (x + 2)3 = 2x(x2 – 1)

(viii) x3 – 4x2 – × + 1 = (x – 2)3

Sol. (i) (x + 1)2 = 2(x – 3)

We have:

(x + 1)2 = 2 (x – 3) x2 + 2x + 1 = 2x – 6

⇒ x2 + 2x + 1 – 2x + 6 = 0

⇒ x2 + 70

Since x2 + 7 is a quadratic polynomial

∴ (x + 1)2 = 2(x – 3) is a quadratic equation.

(ii) x2– 2x = (–2) (3 – x)

We have:

x2 – 2x = (– 2) (3 – x)

⇒ x2 – 2x = –6 + 2x

⇒ x2 – 2x – 2x + 6 = 0

⇒ x2 – 4x + 6 = 0

Since x2 –
