Homework Statement
Let R be a ring and x in R such that x^n=0 for some n show that 1 + x is a unit.
I know then that x is a zero divisor and I need to find y such that y(1+x) = 1.
I can see in examples that this works and I can prove it for Z mod n. I can't figure out how to prove it for any ring. Please help
Thanks
