Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{15}{13}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given equation is a reciprocal equation. Divide by \(x^2\) and substitute \(y = x + \frac{1}{x}\) (so \(x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2} = y^2 - 2\)). \(12(x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2}) - 56(x + \frac{1}{x}) + 89 = 0\) \(12(y^2 - 2) - 56y + 89 = 0\) \(12y^2 - 24 - 56y + 89 = 0\)…
