[tex]\bf x^{-1}-1\div x-1\implies \implies \cfrac{1}{x}-1\div x-1\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{x}-1}{~~x-1~~}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1-x}{x}~~}{\frac{x-1}{1}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{1-x}{x}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x-1}\implies \cfrac{-(\begin{matrix} x-1 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix})}{x}\cdot \cfrac{1}{\begin{matrix} x-1 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}}\implies -\cfrac{1}{x}\implies -x^{-1}[/tex]
