(2x)/((x + 1)(x - 3)) - (5)/((x + 4)(x - 3))


(2x(x + 4) - 5(x + 1))/((x + 1)(x - 3)(x + 4))


\frac{2x {}^(2) + 8x - 5x - 5}{(x - 1)(x - 3)(x + 4)}


\frac{2x {}^(2) + 3x - 5}{(x - 1)(x - 3)(x + 4)}


((2x + 5)(x - 1))/((x - 1)(x - 3)(x + 4))


(2x + 5)/((x - 3 )(x + 4))


\frac{2x + 5}{x {}^(2) + x - 12}
