MCQ
The solution of the equation $x + \frac{1}{x} = 2$ will be
  • A
    $2, -1$
  • B
    $0, -1,  - \frac{1}{5}$
  • C
    $ - 1, - \frac{1}{5}$
  • None of these

Answer

Correct option: D.
None of these
d
(d) $x + \frac{1}{x} = 2\,\, \Rightarrow \,\,x + \frac{1}{x} - 2 = 0$ $(\because x \ne 0)$

==> ${x^2} - 2x + 1 = 0$

==>${(x - 1)^2} = 0$

==> $x = 1,1$.
