\frac{x\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}-\frac{5\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x+3 and x-2 is \left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right). Multiply \frac{x}{x+3} times \frac{x-2}{x-2}. Multiply \frac{5}{x-2} times \frac{x+3}{x+3}.
\frac{x\left(x-2\right)-5\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Since \frac{x\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)} and \frac{5\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{x^{2}-2x-5x-15}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Do the multiplications in x\left(x-2\right)-5\left(x+3\right).
\frac{x^{2}-7x-15}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Combine like terms in x^{2}-2x-5x-15.
\frac{x^{2}-7x-15}{x^{2}+x-6}
Expand \left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right).
