Derivation

  1. Initial program 14.3

    \[\frac{1}{x + 1} - \frac{1}{x - 1}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied frac-sub13.7

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

  4. Simplified0.4

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

  5. Simplified0.4

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

  7. Applied difference-of-squares0.4

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

  8. Applied associate-/r*0.1

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

  9. Simplified0.1

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

  10. Final simplification0.1

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