2x\left(x-1\right)-hx\left(x-1\right)=-5
Multiply both sides of the equation by x-1.
2x^{2}-2x-hx\left(x-1\right)=-5
Use the distributive property to multiply 2x by x-1.
2x^{2}-2x-hx^{2}+xh=-5
Use the distributive property to multiply -hx by x-1.
-2x-hx^{2}+xh=-5-2x^{2}
Subtract 2x^{2} from both sides.
-hx^{2}+xh=-5-2x^{2}+2x
Add 2x to both sides.
\left(-x^{2}+x\right)h=-5-2x^{2}+2x
Combine all terms containing h.
\left(x-x^{2}\right)h=-2x^{2}+2x-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(x-x^{2}\right)h}{x-x^{2}}=\frac{-2x^{2}+2x-5}{x-x^{2}}
Divide both sides by -x^{2}+x.
h=\frac{-2x^{2}+2x-5}{x-x^{2}}
Dividing by -x^{2}+x undoes the multiplication by -x^{2}+x.
h=\frac{-2x^{2}+2x-5}{x\left(1-x\right)}
Divide -5-2x^{2}+2x by -x^{2}+x.
