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

Derivation

  1. Initial program 9.8

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

  3. Applied frac-sub25.8

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

  4. Applied frac-add25.2

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

  5. Taylor expanded around 0 0.3

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{2}}{\left(\left(x + 1\right) \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x - 1\right)}\]
  6. Using strategy rm

  7. Applied associate-/r*0.1

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

  8. Final simplification0.1
