how do you solve (x+1)^-1=x^-1+x graphically by converting it to an equivalent equation and how do you find the x-intercept

Question

zehanz · Answer

Here's a graph drawn in Geogebra.
Zooming in will do the trick! 
(Or do you have to do it with a calculator like the TI-84?)

BTW there is no x-intercept...

My bad, here's the graph:

anonymous · Answer

how would you convert the equation to an equivalent one

mertsj · Answer

$$\frac{1}{x+1}=\frac{1}{x}+x$$

mertsj · Answer

Multiply each term by the common denominator which is x(x+1)

zehanz · Answer

The question looks a bit cryptic to me: if you have to solve it graphically, why bother converting it to an equivalent equation?

anonymous · Answer

to question says....
solve the equation graphically by converting it to an equivalent equation with 0 on the right hand side and then find the xintercepts

zehanz · Answer

OK, if you do what @Mertsj said, you'll get a 3rd degree equation, that can only be solved graphically. Makes sense ;)
