\frac{2}{5\left(x-2\right)}+\frac{4}{2-x}
Factor 5x-10.
\frac{2}{5\left(x-2\right)}+\frac{4\left(-5\right)}{5\left(x-2\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 5\left(x-2\right) and 2-x is 5\left(x-2\right). Multiply \frac{4}{2-x} times \frac{-5}{-5}.
\frac{2+4\left(-5\right)}{5\left(x-2\right)}
Since \frac{2}{5\left(x-2\right)} and \frac{4\left(-5\right)}{5\left(x-2\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{2-20}{5\left(x-2\right)}
Do the multiplications in 2+4\left(-5\right).
\frac{-18}{5\left(x-2\right)}
Do the calculations in 2-20.
\frac{-18}{5x-10}
Expand 5\left(x-2\right).
