\frac{x}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}+\frac{2}{x\left(x-2\right)}-\frac{1}{x^{2}+2x}
Factor x^{2}-4. Factor x^{2}-2x.
\frac{xx}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}+\frac{2\left(x+2\right)}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}-\frac{1}{x^{2}+2x}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of \left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right) and x\left(x-2\right) is x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right). Multiply \frac{x}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)} times \frac{x}{x}. Multiply \frac{2}{x\left(x-2\right)} times \frac{x+2}{x+2}.
\frac{xx+2\left(x+2\right)}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}-\frac{1}{x^{2}+2x}
Since \frac{xx}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)} and \frac{2\left(x+2\right)}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{x^{2}+2x+4}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}-\frac{1}{x^{2}+2x}
Do the multiplications in xx+2\left(x+2\right).
\frac{x^{2}+2x+4}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}-\frac{1}{x\left(x+2\right)}
Factor x^{2}+2x.
\frac{x^{2}+2x+4}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}-\frac{x-2}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right) and x\left(x+2\right) is x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right). Multiply \frac{1}{x\left(x+2\right)} times \frac{x-2}{x-2}.
\frac{x^{2}+2x+4-\left(x-2\right)}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}
Since \frac{x^{2}+2x+4}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)} and \frac{x-2}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{x^{2}+2x+4-x+2}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}
Do the multiplications in x^{2}+2x+4-\left(x-2\right).
\frac{x^{2}+x+6}{x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right)}
Combine like terms in x^{2}+2x+4-x+2.
\frac{x^{2}+x+6}{x^{3}-4x}
Expand x\left(x-2\right)\left(x+2\right).
