Solve y=-1/1+x

$$y=- \frac{ 1 }{ 1+x }$$

Solve for x

$$x=-1-\frac{1}{y}$$

$$y\neq 0$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to -1 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x+1.

$$y\left(x+1\right)=-1$$

Use the distributive property to multiply y by x+1.

$$yx+y=-1$$

Subtract y from both sides.

$$yx=-1-y$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$yx=-y-1$$

Divide both sides by y.

$$\frac{yx}{y}=\frac{-y-1}{y}$$

Dividing by y undoes the multiplication by y.

$$x=\frac{-y-1}{y}$$

Divide -1-y by y.

$$x=-1-\frac{1}{y}$$

Variable x cannot be equal to -1.

$$x=-1-\frac{1}{y}\text{, }x\neq -1$$

Solve for y

$$y=-\frac{1}{x+1}$$

$$x\neq -1$$
