(x+5)^2/(x^2+2x-15) +2/(4x-12)
---------------------
Factor where you can to get:
---
(x+5)^2/[(x+5)(x-3)] +2/[4(x-3)]
----
Cancel where you can to get:
(x+5)/[(x-3)] + 1/[2(x-3)]
---------------------------------------------
least common denominator: 2(x-3)
--------
Rewrite fractions over the lcd:
[2(x+5)]/lcd + 1/lcd
--------------------
Combine the numerators over the lcd:
[2x+10+1]/lcd
---------------------
Simplify:
[2x+11]/[2(x-3)]
