    If x2=y+z,y2=z+xx^2=y+z,y^2=z+x​ and z2=x+yz^2=x+y​, then find the value of 1x+1+1y+1+1z+1.\frac{1}{x+1}+\frac{1}{y+1}+\frac{1}{z+1}.

    Correct option is D

    Given:
    x² = y + z
    y² = z + x
    z² = x + y
    Solution:
    1) x² = y + z
     x² + x = y + z + x 
    =>1x+1=xx+y+z\Rightarrow \frac{1}{x + 1} = \frac{x}{x + y + z} ............(1)​
    2) y² = z + x 
     y² + y = x + z + y = x + y + z
    =>1y+1=yx+y+z\Rightarrow \frac{1}{y + 1} = \frac{y}{x + y + z} ..........(2)
    3) z² = x + y
     z² + z = x + y + z
    =>1z+1=zx+y+z\Rightarrow \frac{1}{z + 1} = \frac{z}{x + y + z}..........(3)
    Add 1, 2, and 3
    1x+1+1y+1+1z+1=xx+y+z+yx+y+z+zx+y+z1x+1+1y+1+1z+1=x+y+zx+y+z=1\frac{1}{x+1} + \frac{1}{y+1} + \frac{1}{z+1} = \frac{x}{x + y + z} + \frac{y}{x + y + z} + \frac{z}{x + y + z}\\ \frac{1}{x+1} + \frac{1}{y+1} + \frac{1}{z+1} = \frac{x + y + z}{x + y + z} = 1​​
