I think it said find f(x) if   f(x) + xf(1 − x) = 1 + x

$$\mathrm{I}\:\mathrm{think}\:\mathrm{it}\:\mathrm{said}\:\mathrm{find}\:{f}\left({x}\right)\:\mathrm{if}\: \\ $$$${f}\left({x}\right)\:+\:{xf}\left(\mathrm{1}\:−\:{x}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{1}\:+\:{x} \\ $$

Replacing x by 1−x, we get  f(1−x)+(1−x)f(x)=2−x  ⇒f(1−x)=(x−1)f(x)+2−x  −−(1)  from the given equation,  f(1−x)=(1/x){1+x−f(x)}  −−(2)  from (1) and (2), we get  x{(x−1)f(x)+2−x}=1+x−f(x)  (x^2 −x)f(x)+2x−x^2 +f(x)=1+x  (x^2 −x+1)f(x)=1+x−2x+x^2   f(x)=((1−x+x^2 )/(x^2 −x+1))  f(x)=1

  f(x)+xf(1−x)=x+1  ⇔f(x+1/2)+(x+1/2)f(−x−1/2)=x+1/2+1  y=x+1/2  ⇔f(y)+yf(−y)=y+1  ⇔f(y)=y+1−yf(−y)  ⇔f(−y)=−y+1+yf(y)  ⇔f(y)=y+1−y[−y+1+yf(y)]  ⇔f(y)=y+1+y^2 −y−y^2 f(y)  ⇔f(y)=1+y^2 −y^2 f(y)  ⇔(1+y^2 )f(y)=1+y^2   ⇔f(y)=((1+y^2 )/(1+y^2 ))  f(y)=1
