1. **Stating the problem:** Simplify or analyze the expression $$\frac{x}{y+x}$$ and understand the given equation $$\frac{x}{y+x} = \frac{1}{y}$$.
2. **Understanding the equation:** We have $$\frac{x}{y+x} = \frac{1}{y}$$. This means the fraction on the left equals the fraction on the right.
3. **Cross-multiply to solve for variables:** Multiply both sides by $$y(y+x)$$ to clear denominators:
$$x \cdot y = 1 \cdot (y+x)$$
which simplifies to
$$xy = y + x$$.
4. **Rearrange the equation:** Move all terms to one side:
$$xy - y - x = 0$$
or
$$y(x - 1) - x = 0$$.
5. **Solve for y:**
$$y(x - 1) = x$$
$$y = \frac{x}{x - 1}$$.
6. **Check the expression for $$x^2$$:** The user wrote $$x^2 = \frac{x^2}{y} + \frac{x^2}{y}$$ which simplifies to
$$x^2 = 2 \cdot \frac{x^2}{y}$$.
7. **Solve for y from this:**
Divide both sides by $$x^2$$ (assuming $$x \neq 0$$):
$$1 = \frac{2}{y}$$
which gives
$$y = 2$$.
8. **Summary:** From the original equation, $$y = \frac{x}{x-1}$$, and from the second expression, $$y=2$$. These can be combined to find $$x$$ if needed.
**Final answers:**
$$y = \frac{x}{x-1}$$ and $$y = 2$$ from the given expressions.
