Given:

The functions are:

p(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}

q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x-1}

To find:

The rational expression for p(x)-q(x).

Solution:

We have,

p(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}

q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x-1}

Now,

p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}-\dfrac{1}{x-1}

p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{(x-1)-(x+1)}{(x+1)(x-1)}

p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{x-1-x-1}{x^2-1^2}             [\because a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)]

p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{-2}{x^2-1}

Therefore, the required rational expression for p(x)-q(x) is \dfrac{-2}{x^2-1}.
