Solving $\frac{x^{11}+x}{x^7+x^5}=\frac{205}{16}$ 
Blockquote
Find $x$ satisfy the equation$$\frac{x^{11}+x}{x^7+x^5}=\frac{205}{16}$$

Here is my work
$$\frac{x^{10}+1}{x^6+x^4}=\frac{205}{16},\quad\quad t:=x^2$$
$$\frac{t^5+1}{t^3+t^2}=\frac{205}{16}$$
$$16t^5-205t^3-205t^2+16=0$$
$t=-1$ is a root of the polynomial but not sure how to find the other roots.
Another approach I tried is dividing numerator and denominator of the original fraction by $x^6$,
$$\frac{x^5+\frac1{x^5}}{x+\frac1x}=\frac{205}{16}$$
$$x^4-x^2+1-\frac1{x^2}+\frac1{x^4}=\frac{205}{16}$$

HINT
You are on the right track!
Notice that
\begin{align*}
x^{2} + \frac{1}{x^{2}} = \left(x + \frac{1}{x}\right)^{2} - 2
\end{align*}
Similarly, we do also have that
\begin{align*}
x^{4} + \frac{1}{x^{4}} & = \left(x^{2} + \frac{1}{x^{2}}\right)^{2} - 2\\\\
& = \left[\left(x + \frac{1}{x}\right)^{2} - 2\right]^{2} - 2
\end{align*}
Now you can make the substitution
\begin{align*}
u = x + \frac{1}{x}
\end{align*}
Then we get that
\begin{align*}
[(u^{2} - 2)^{2} - 2] - (u^{2} - 2) + 1 = \frac{205}{16} \Longleftrightarrow u^{4} - 5u^{2} + 5 = \frac{205}{16}
\end{align*}
which is a biquadratic equation.
Can you take it from here?
