Differentiate Rational
1. **State the problem:** Differentiate the function $$y = \frac{1+x}{1-x}$$ with respect to $$x$$ and find $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$.
2. **Apply the quotient rule:** For $$y = \frac{u}{v}$$, $$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{v\frac{du}{dx} - u\frac{dv}{dx}}{v^2}$$.
3. Identify $$u = 1+x$$ and $$v = 1-x$$.
4. Compute derivatives: $$\frac{du}{dx} = 1$$ and $$\frac{dv}{dx} = -1$$.
5. Substitute into quotient rule formula:
$$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{(1-x)(1) - (1+x)(-1)}{(1-x)^2}$$
6. Simplify numerator:
$$(1-x) + (1+x) = 1-x + 1 + x = 2$$
7. So derivative is:
$$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2}{(1-x)^2}$$
**Answer:** Option c. $$2(1-x)^2$$
