find the value of x=1 X = 1 + ____1______ . 2+ ____1______ . 2+ ____1______ . 2+ ____1______ . 2+ …….infinity
It's already the value. :)
sorry I am just try to give it shape.. not sure how to put underline.. so ...
I really can't understand the input.
is this your question ? \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} x = 1 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cdots \infty^{+}}}}} \end{align}}\)
whew!! mathmath333 you have always been my saviour so far
@mathmath 333; I don't know how you are able to write like this but yes this is indeed the question Sir,,
\[\large x = 1+ \dfrac{1}{1+x}\]
ganeshie8's method came from this \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} x = 1 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cdots \infty^{+}}}}}\hspace{1.5em}\\~\\ \implies x +1= 2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cfrac{1}{2 + \cdots \infty^{+}}}}}\hspace{1.5em}\\~\\ \implies x +1= 2 + \cfrac{1}{ x+1}\hspace{1.5em}\\~\\ \implies x = 1 + \cfrac{1}{ x+1}\hspace{1.5em}\\~\\ \end{align}}\)
So the value of x =2?
no u will get the quadratic equation , which will give two values
Yes, sorry.. x=1 is what I get
@ganishe8 this is fast, real fast would like to know who taught you maths
\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} x +1= 2 + \dfrac{1}{ x+1}\hspace{1.5em}\\~\\ ( x +1)^2= 2(x+1) + 1\hspace{1.5em}\\~\\ ( x +1)^2-2(x+1)+1= 2\hspace{1.5em}\\~\\ \left(( x +1)-1\right)^2= 2\hspace{1.5em}\\~\\ x=\pm\sqrt 2 \end{align}}\)
hmmm, yes thanks mathmath333
note that here only \(x=+\sqrt2\) is possible and not \(x\neq -\sqrt2\)
so the ans is \[\sqrt{2}\] ?
yes
