\frac{3}{2\left(x+5\right)}+\frac{5}{x+2}
Factor 2x+10.
\frac{3\left(x+2\right)}{2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right)}+\frac{5\times 2\left(x+5\right)}{2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 2\left(x+5\right) and x+2 is 2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right). Multiply \frac{3}{2\left(x+5\right)} times \frac{x+2}{x+2}. Multiply \frac{5}{x+2} times \frac{2\left(x+5\right)}{2\left(x+5\right)}.
\frac{3\left(x+2\right)+5\times 2\left(x+5\right)}{2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right)}
Since \frac{3\left(x+2\right)}{2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right)} and \frac{5\times 2\left(x+5\right)}{2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{3x+6+10x+50}{2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right)}
Do the multiplications in 3\left(x+2\right)+5\times 2\left(x+5\right).
\frac{13x+56}{2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right)}
Combine like terms in 3x+6+10x+50.
\frac{13x+56}{2x^{2}+14x+20}
Expand 2\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right).
