Answer:

First option,
(-2y+5x)/(3x-2y)

Explanation:

Simplify the fraction. To make the process of solving easier, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by x and y to get rid of the fractions as seen below. This is because the variables in the denominators of the fractions will cancel out with either the matching x or y in the numerators.


((-2)/(x) +(5)/(y) )/((3)/(y)-(2)/(x) ) \\=(((-2)/(x) +(5)/(y))xy )/(((3)/(y)-(2)/(x))xy )\\=(-2y+5x)/(3x-2y)

Thus, the first option is correct.
