Let $f(t)=\frac{t}{1-t}$ , $t \not= 1$ . If $y=f(x)$ , then $x$ can be expressed as

$\textbf{(A)}\ f\left(\frac{1}{y}\right)\qquad \textbf{(B)}\ -f(y)\qquad \textbf{(C)}\ -f(-y)\qquad \textbf{(D)}\ f(-y)\qquad \textbf{(E)}\ f(y)$

Since we know that $y=f(x)$ , we can solve for $y$ in terms of $x$ . This gives us

$y=\frac{1}{1-x}\Rightarrow$
