\frac{1}{x^{3}+x-72}+\frac{1}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}}
Factor x^{2}+2x+1.
\frac{\left(x+1\right)^{2}}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right)}+\frac{x^{3}+x-72}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x^{3}+x-72 and \left(x+1\right)^{2} is \left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right). Multiply \frac{1}{x^{3}+x-72} times \frac{\left(x+1\right)^{2}}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}}. Multiply \frac{1}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}} times \frac{x^{3}+x-72}{x^{3}+x-72}.
\frac{\left(x+1\right)^{2}+x^{3}+x-72}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right)}
Since \frac{\left(x+1\right)^{2}}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right)} and \frac{x^{3}+x-72}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{x^{2}+2x+1+x^{3}+x-72}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right)}
Do the multiplications in \left(x+1\right)^{2}+x^{3}+x-72.
\frac{x^{2}+3x-71+x^{3}}{\left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right)}
Combine like terms in x^{2}+2x+1+x^{3}+x-72.
\frac{x^{2}+3x-71+x^{3}}{x^{5}+2x^{4}+2x^{3}-70x^{2}-143x-72}
Expand \left(x+1\right)^{2}\left(x^{3}+x-72\right).
