\frac{x^{2}+3}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)}+\frac{x-1}{x+3}
Factor x^{2}-9.
\frac{x^{2}+3}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)}+\frac{\left(x-1\right)\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of \left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right) and x+3 is \left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right). Multiply \frac{x-1}{x+3} times \frac{x-3}{x-3}.
\frac{x^{2}+3+\left(x-1\right)\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Since \frac{x^{2}+3}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)} and \frac{\left(x-1\right)\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{x^{2}+3+x^{2}-3x-x+3}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Do the multiplications in x^{2}+3+\left(x-1\right)\left(x-3\right).
\frac{2x^{2}+6-4x}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Combine like terms in x^{2}+3+x^{2}-3x-x+3.
\frac{2x^{2}+6-4x}{x^{2}-9}
Expand \left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right).
