$${f}\left({x}+\mathrm{1}\right)−{f}\left({x}\right)={x} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)={f}\left(\mathrm{1}\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{f}\left({x}\right)={kx}\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)+{c} \\ $$$${k}\left[\left({x}+\mathrm{1}\right){x}−{x}\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)\right]={x} \\ $$$${k}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{f}\left({x}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}{x}\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)+{c} \\ $$
