\[\frac{2}{x \cdot \left(x \cdot x - 1\right)}\]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 10.1

    \[\left(\frac{1}{x + 1} - \frac{2}{x}\right) + \frac{1}{x - 1}\]
  2. Using strategy rm
  3. Applied frac-sub25.7

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1 \cdot x - \left(x + 1\right) \cdot 2}{\left(x + 1\right) \cdot x}} + \frac{1}{x - 1}\]
  4. Applied frac-add25.1

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\left(1 \cdot x - \left(x + 1\right) \cdot 2\right) \cdot \left(x - 1\right) + \left(\left(x + 1\right) \cdot x\right) \cdot 1}{\left(\left(x + 1\right) \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x - 1\right)}}\]
  5. Applied simplify25.2

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\left(x - 1\right) \cdot \left(\left(x - 2\right) - \left(x + x\right)\right) + \left(x + x \cdot x\right)}}{\left(\left(x + 1\right) \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x - 1\right)}\]
  6. Taylor expanded around 0 0.3

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{2}}{\left(\left(x + 1\right) \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x - 1\right)}\]
  7. Taylor expanded around 0 0.3

    \[\leadsto \frac{2}{\color{blue}{{x}^{3} - x}}\]
  8. Removed slow pow expressions.
