The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( x + \frac{1}{x} = 2 \) and find \( x^{11} + \frac{1}{x^{11}} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Solve for \( x \) Given the equation: \[ x + \frac{1}{x} = 2 \] We can multiply both sides by \( x \) (assuming \( x \neq 0 \)): \[ x^2 + 1 = 2x \] Rearranging gives us: \[ x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0 \] ### Step 2: Factor the quadratic The quadratic can be factored as: \[ (x - 1)^2 = 0 \] ### Step 3: Solve for \( x \) Setting the factor equal to zero gives: \[ x - 1 = 0 \implies x = 1 \] ### Step 4: Find \( \frac{1}{x} \) Since \( x = 1 \): \[ \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{1} = 1 \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( x^{11} + \frac{1}{x^{11}} \) Now we can substitute \( x \) into the expression we need to find: \[ x^{11} + \frac{1}{x^{11}} = 1^{11} + \frac{1}{1^{11}} = 1 + 1 = 2 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( x^{11} + \frac{1}{x^{11}} \) is: \[ \boxed{2} \]
