\frac{x}{3x-15}-\frac{2\left(x+1\right)}{\left(x-5\right)\left(x+1\right)}
Factor the expressions that are not already factored in \frac{2x+2}{x^{2}-4x-5}.
\frac{x}{3x-15}-\frac{2}{x-5}
Cancel out x+1 in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{x}{3\left(x-5\right)}-\frac{2}{x-5}
Factor 3x-15.
\frac{x}{3\left(x-5\right)}-\frac{2\times 3}{3\left(x-5\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 3\left(x-5\right) and x-5 is 3\left(x-5\right). Multiply \frac{2}{x-5} times \frac{3}{3}.
\frac{x-2\times 3}{3\left(x-5\right)}
Since \frac{x}{3\left(x-5\right)} and \frac{2\times 3}{3\left(x-5\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{x-6}{3\left(x-5\right)}
Do the multiplications in x-2\times 3.
\frac{x-6}{3x-15}
Expand 3\left(x-5\right).
\frac{x}{3x-15}-\frac{2\left(x+1\right)}{\left(x-5\right)\left(x+1\right)}
Factor the expressions that are not already factored in \frac{2x+2}{x^{2}-4x-5}.
\frac{x}{3x-15}-\frac{2}{x-5}
Cancel out x+1 in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{x}{3\left(x-5\right)}-\frac{2}{x-5}
Factor 3x-15.
\frac{x}{3\left(x-5\right)}-\frac{2\times 3}{3\left(x-5\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 3\left(x-5\right) and x-5 is 3\left(x-5\right). Multiply \frac{2}{x-5} times \frac{3}{3}.
\frac{x-2\times 3}{3\left(x-5\right)}
Since \frac{x}{3\left(x-5\right)} and \frac{2\times 3}{3\left(x-5\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{x-6}{3\left(x-5\right)}
Do the multiplications in x-2\times 3.
\frac{x-6}{3x-15}
Expand 3\left(x-5\right).
