✔ 最佳答案
1/x +1/a = a + x(ax)(1/x + 1/a) = ax(a + x)a + x = ax(a + x)ax(a + x) – (a + x) = 0(ax – 1)(a + x) = 0x = 1/a or x = -a

(1/x)+(1/a)=a+x Rearranging
x-(1/x)=(1/a)-a
So one solution is -a,. By inspection, the other solution is 1/a.
Finally,the equation can be arranged as x^2-[(1/a)-a]x-1=0. By fundamental theorem of algebra. A a polynomial equation of degree n has n solutions. So, there is no more solution of the equation.
