Derivation

1. Initial program 14.8

   \[\frac{1}{x + 1} - \frac{1}{x - 1} \]

2. Applied egg-rr 14.1

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

3. Taylor expanded in x around 0 0.1

   \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{-2}}{1 + x}}{x + -1} \]

4. Final simplification 0.1

   \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{-2}{1 + x}}{x + -1} \]
