From xy+1=−yx+1x\sqrt{y+1}=-y\sqrt{x+1}, square both sides:

x2(y+1)=y2(x+1) ⇒ x2y+x2−y2x−y2=0 ⇒ xy(x−y)+(x2−y2)=0.x^2(y+1)=y^2(x+1)\ \Rightarrow\ x^2y+x^2-y^2x-y^2=0\ \Rightarrow\ xy(x-y)+(x^2-y^2)=0.

xy(x−y)+(x−y)(x+y)=0 ⇒ (x−y)(xy+x+y)=0.xy(x-y)+(x-y)(x+y)=0\ \Rightarrow\ (x-y)\big(xy+x+y\big)=0.

Since x≠yx\ne y, we need xy+x+y=0xy+x+y=0, i.e. y(x+1)=−xy(x+1)=-x, so

y=−xx+1.y=-\frac{x}{x+1}. …
