#(x-2)/x#

Explanation:

First of all, this expression can be written in easier terms to understand.

Instead of: #(x^2+3x-10)-:(x^2-5x)#

Write: #(x^2+3x-10)/(x^2-5x)#

The goal of this expression is to simplify as much as possible, and you can do that by canceling out factors. First, factor both the numerator and denominator.

#((x+5)(x-2))/(x(x-5)#

Then cancel out like factors.

#(x-2)/x#

Since there are no more like factors, this expression is in its simplest form!

Your final answer is #(x-2)/x#!
