Answer:

The difference of given expressions is
(x^2+7x+10)/(x^3-9x).

Explanation:

The given expression is


(2x+5)/(x^2-3x)-(3x+5)/(x^3-9x)-(x+1)/(x^2-9)

Find factors of denominators.


(2x+5)/(x(x-3))-(3x+5)/(x(x^2-9))-(x+1)/(x^2-9)

Use
a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)


(2x+5)/(x(x-3))-(3x+5)/(x(x-3)(x+3))-(x+1)/((x-3)(x+3))

Take
x(x+3)(x-3) as LCD.


((x+3)(2x+5)-(3x+5)-x(x+1))/(x(x+3)(x-3))


((2x^2+5x+6x+15)-3x-5-x^2-x)/(x(x^2-3^2))


(2x^2+5x+6x+15-4x-5-x^2)/(x(x^2-9))


(x^2+7x+10)/(x^3-9x)

Therefore the difference of given expressions is
(x^2+7x+10)/(x^3-9x).
