Let's solve the given equations step by step. ### Part (i): Solve the equation \( x + \frac{1}{x} = 3 \) **Step 1: Multiply both sides by \( x \)** To eliminate the fraction, we multiply both sides of the equation by \( x \) (since \( x \neq 0 \)): \[ x \cdot x + x \cdot \frac{1}{x} = 3 \cdot x ...
