Question

Simplify

Answer 1

\[\frac{ x^{-1} + 2x^{-2} }{ 1+x^{-1} }\]

Answer 2

you can write \[\huge \bf x^{-1} ~as~\frac{1}{x}\]
and \[\huge \bf 2x^{-2}~as~\frac{2}{x^2}\]

Answer 3

so can you rewrite your problem? @RH

Answer 4

1/x + 2 1?xˆ2 / 1 + 1/x

Answer 5

is it correct?

Answer 6

@RH use equation editor

Answer 7

Would the question be:
\( \huge \frac{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{2}{x^2}}{1+\frac{1}{x}}\\
\)?
Do you need to simplify the expression?

@mayankdevnani How did you make the display in bold? I got the \huge.

Answer 8

yes!!!

Answer 9

that is what I got

Answer 10

On condition that x\( \ne\)0, you can multiply numerator and denominator by \( x^2 \) and then simplify.

Answer 11

How do I simplify?

Answer 12

@mathmate can you please help?

Answer 13

we get,
\[\huge \bf \frac{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{2}{x^2}}{1+\frac{1}{x}}\]

first solve this :-

now solve this :-

by combining,we get
