We'll multiply by LCD inside the first pair of
brackets:
LCD = (x-1)(x+1) = x^2 -
1
[(x+1-x+1+x^2-1)/(x^2-1)]*[(x+1)/(x^2+1)]
We'll
combine and eliminate like terms:
[(x^2 +
1)/(x^2-1)]*[(x+1)/(x^2+1)]
We'll simplify by
(x^2+1):
[(x^2 + 1)/(x^2-1)]*[(x+1)/(x^2+1)] =
(x+1)/(x^2-1)
W'll re-write the difference of squares from
denominator as a product:
(x+1)/(x^2-1) =
(x+1)/(x-1)(x+1)
We'll simplify by
(x+1):
E(x) =
1/(x-1)
The simplified expression is E(x) =
1/(x-1).
