\frac{4\left(x+1\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+1\right)}-\frac{5\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+1\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x-2 and x+1 is \left(x-2\right)\left(x+1\right). Multiply \frac{4}{x-2} times \frac{x+1}{x+1}. Multiply \frac{5}{x+1} times \frac{x-2}{x-2}.
