Differentiate the equation with respect to x, then evaluate the derivative at x=0 to get the slope of the tangent line. Get the y-coordinates at x=0, i.e. sub. x=0 into the equation. You have a point, and the slope of the tangent line, you get find the equation.
\[y=\frac{ 1-x }{ 1+x }\] ??
\[\frac{ d }{ dx }(\frac{ 1-x }{ 1+x })= \frac{ -2 }{ (x+1)^2 }\]
now substitute for x=0
so \[y=-2\]
