Hast du dein Lehrbuch gebracht?
The verb "mitbringen" is separable; the correct past participle is "mitgebracht", not just "gebracht".
Hast du deine Lehrbuch mitgebracht?
"Lehrbuch" is neuter (das Lehrbuch), so the possessive pronoun must be "dein", not "deine".
Hast du mit dein Lehrbuch gebracht?
The separable prefix must stay attached to the participle at the end of the clause.

Cultural Tip
In German classrooms it is common to address classmates with "du" if you know each other well; otherwise the polite "Sie" is used (e.g., "Haben Sie Ihr Lehrbuch mitgebracht?"). Also, German students often keep their textbooks in a backpack, so "mitgebracht" (brought along) is the natural verb.
