n x 2 x + n ( n + 1 ) = 0 nx^2-x+n(n+1)=0

Algebra Level 3

For all positive integers n n , let α n \alpha_n and β n \beta_n be the roots of the quadratic equation n x 2 x + n ( n + 1 ) = 0. nx^2-x+n(n+1)=0. What is the value of ( 1 α 1 + 1 β 1 ) + ( 1 α 2 + 1 β 2 ) + + ( 1 α 25 + 1 β 25 ) ? \left(\frac{1}{\alpha_1}+\frac{1}{\beta_1}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{\alpha_2}+\frac{1}{\beta_2}\right)+ \cdots +\left(\frac{1}{\alpha_{25}}+\frac{1}{\beta_{25}}\right)?
