Answer:

[tex]\frac{x-3}{x-5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorise the numerator and denominator

x² - x - 6 = (x - 3)(x + 2)

x² - 3x - 10 = (x - 5)(x + 2)

The rational expression can now be written as

= [tex]\frac{(x-3)(x+2)}{(x-5)(x+2)}[/tex] ← cancel the factor (x + 2) on numerator/denominator

= [tex]\frac{x-3}{x-5}[/tex]
