Question Number 11764 by Peter last updated on 31/Mar/17

if x y and z are solution of  ((x + xy)/(x + y + 1)) = 2  ((2x + xz)/(x + z +2)) = 3  ((2 + 2y+ z + yz)/(y + z +3)) = 4  so, the value of  (1/x) + (1/(y + 1)) + (1/(z + 2 )) = ....?

$$\mathrm{if}\:\mathrm{x}\:\mathrm{y}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{z}\:\mathrm{are}\:\mathrm{solution}\:\mathrm{of} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{x}\:+\:\mathrm{xy}}{\mathrm{x}\:+\:\mathrm{y}\:+\:\mathrm{1}}\:=\:\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{2x}\:+\:\mathrm{xz}}{\mathrm{x}\:+\:\mathrm{z}\:+\mathrm{2}}\:=\:\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{2}\:+\:\mathrm{2y}+\:\mathrm{z}\:+\:\mathrm{yz}}{\mathrm{y}\:+\:\mathrm{z}\:+\mathrm{3}}\:=\:\mathrm{4} \\ $$$$\mathrm{so},\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{value}\:\mathrm{of} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{x}}\:+\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{y}\:+\:\mathrm{1}}\:+\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{z}\:+\:\mathrm{2}\:}\:=\:....? \\ $$$$ \\ $$

((x(y+1))/(x+(y+1)))=2;   ((x(z+2))/(x+(z+2)))=3;  (((y+1)(z+2))/((y+1)+(z+2)))=4  ⇒ 2((1/x)+(1/(y+1))+(1/(z+2)) )=(1/2)+(1/3)+(1/4)  ⇒ (1/x)+(1/(y+1))+(1/(z+2)) = ((13)/(24))  .

$$\frac{{x}\left({y}+\mathrm{1}\right)}{{x}+\left({y}+\mathrm{1}\right)}=\mathrm{2};\:\:\:\frac{{x}\left({z}+\mathrm{2}\right)}{{x}+\left({z}+\mathrm{2}\right)}=\mathrm{3}; \\ $$$$\frac{\left({y}+\mathrm{1}\right)\left({z}+\mathrm{2}\right)}{\left({y}+\mathrm{1}\right)+\left({z}+\mathrm{2}\right)}=\mathrm{4} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{2}\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{x}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{y}+\mathrm{1}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{z}+\mathrm{2}}\:\right)=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{x}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{y}+\mathrm{1}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{z}+\mathrm{2}}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{13}}{\mathrm{24}}\:\:. \\ $$
