\frac{7\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x-2\right)^{2}}-\frac{4x-5}{\left(x-2\right)^{2}}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x-2 and \left(x-2\right)^{2} is \left(x-2\right)^{2}. Multiply \frac{7}{x-2} times \frac{x-2}{x-2}.
\frac{7\left(x-2\right)-\left(4x-5\right)}{\left(x-2\right)^{2}}
Since \frac{7\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x-2\right)^{2}} and \frac{4x-5}{\left(x-2\right)^{2}} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{7x-14-4x+5}{\left(x-2\right)^{2}}
Do the multiplications in 7\left(x-2\right)-\left(4x-5\right).
\frac{3x-9}{\left(x-2\right)^{2}}
Combine like terms in 7x-14-4x+5.
\frac{3x-9}{x^{2}-4x+4}
Expand \left(x-2\right)^{2}.
