$${x}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1}+{x}} \\ $$$${x}^{\mathrm{2}} +{x}−\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${x}=\frac{−\mathrm{1}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{4}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${x}=\frac{−\mathrm{1}+\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}}\:…\left(\mathrm{1}\right) \\ $$$${y}=\sqrt{\mathrm{1}+{y}} \\ $$$${y}^{\mathrm{2}} −{y}−\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${y}=\frac{\mathrm{1}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{4}}}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$

$${y}>\mathrm{0},\:{therefore}\:{y}=\frac{\mathrm{1}+\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}}\:{only}. \\ $$
