Given,
{tex}\frac { 1 } { ( a + b + x ) } = \frac { 1 } { a } + \frac { 1 } { b } + \frac { 1 } { x }{/tex}
{tex}\Rightarrow \quad \frac { 1 } { ( a + b + x ) } - \frac { 1 } { x } = \frac { 1 } { a } + \frac { 1 } { b } \Rightarrow \frac { x - ( a + b + x ) } { x ( a + b + x ) } = \frac { b + a } { a b }{/tex}
{tex}\Rightarrow \quad \frac { - ( a + b ) } { x ( a + b + x ) } = \frac { ( a + b ) } { a b }{/tex}
On dividing both sides by (a+b)
{tex}\Rightarrow \quad \frac { - 1 } { x ( a + b + x ) } = \frac { 1 } { a b }{/tex}
Now cross multiply
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} x(a + b + x) = -ab
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} x2 + ax + bx + ab = 0
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} x(x +a) + b(x +a) = 0
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} (x + a) (x + b) = 0
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} x + a = 0 or x + b = 0
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} x = -a or x = -b.
Therefore, -a and -b are the roots of the equation.
