-6x² + 5x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms. Like terms are terms with the same amount of variables.

Reorder based on descending powers:

-5x² - x² + 7x - 2x + 10 + 5

(-5x² - x²) + (7x - 2x) + (10 + 5)

(-6x²) + (5x) + (15)

-6x² + 5x + 15 is your answer.

_______________

Solve the equation:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8}{x-5}-\dfrac{9}{x-4}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}\qquad\qquad(x\ne 5~and~x\ne 4)}$

Reduce the fractions at the left side so that they have the same denominator:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8(x-4)}{(x-5)(x-4)}-\dfrac{9(x-5)}{(x-4)(x-5)}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-4x-5x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-4x-5x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-9x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32-(9x-45)}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}$

Numerators must be equal:

$\mathsf{8x-32-(9x-45)=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-32-9x+45=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-9x=5+32-45}\\\\
\mathsf{-x=-8}\\\\
\mathsf{x=8}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the solution.}$

I hope this helps. =)
