\frac{x-1}{x+1}-x-1
To find the opposite of x+1, find the opposite of each term.
\frac{x-1}{x+1}+\frac{\left(-x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)}{x+1}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply -x-1 times \frac{x+1}{x+1}.
\frac{x-1+\left(-x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)}{x+1}
Since \frac{x-1}{x+1} and \frac{\left(-x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)}{x+1} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{x-1-x^{2}-x-x-1}{x+1}
Do the multiplications in x-1+\left(-x-1\right)\left(x+1\right).
\frac{-x-2-x^{2}}{x+1}
Combine like terms in x-1-x^{2}-x-x-1.
