The function $f(x)$ is defined for all $x$, except 1, and satisfies the equation: $(x-1) f\left(\frac{x+1}{x-1}\right)=x+f(x)$. Find $f(-1)$.
Substitute the values $x=0$ and $x=-1$ into the given equation. We get: $\left\{\begin{array}{c}-f(-1)=f(0), \\ -2 f(0)=-1+f(-1)\end{array}\right.$. Therefore, $2 f(-1)=-1+f(-1)$, which means $f(-1)=-1$.

## Answer

-1.
