\frac{x+4}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right)}+\frac{2x}{x-4}
Factor x^{2}-x-12.
\frac{x+4}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right)}+\frac{2x\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of \left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right) and x-4 is \left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right). Multiply \frac{2x}{x-4} times \frac{x+3}{x+3}.
\frac{x+4+2x\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Since \frac{x+4}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right)} and \frac{2x\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{x+4+2x^{2}+6x}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Do the multiplications in x+4+2x\left(x+3\right).
\frac{7x+4+2x^{2}}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Combine like terms in x+4+2x^{2}+6x.
\frac{7x+4+2x^{2}}{x^{2}-x-12}
Expand \left(x-4\right)\left(x+3\right).
