1. **State the problem:** Simplify the given algebraic expressions by multiplying out the numerators and combining like terms.
2. **Recall the distributive property:** To multiply expressions like $(x-1)(x-1)$, use the formula $(a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2$.
3. **Simplify each numerator:**
- For the first expression: $2x^2 - 3 + 3x^2 - 2 = (2x^2 + 3x^2) + (-3 - 2) = 5x^2 - 5$
4. **Simplify the denominator:**
- $(x-1)(x-1) = (x-1)^2 = x^2 - 2x + 1$
5. **Write the simplified first expression:**
$$\frac{5x^2 - 5}{(x-1)^2}$$
6. **For the second expression numerator:**
- $2x^2 - 3 + 3x^2 - 2 = 5x^2 - 5$
7. **Denominator:**
- $x(x-1)(x-1) = x(x-1)^2 = x(x^2 - 2x + 1) = x^3 - 2x^2 + x$
8. **Simplified second expression:**
$$\frac{5x^2 - 5}{x(x-1)^2}$$
9. **For the third expression numerator:**
- $2x^2 - x - 3 + 3x^2 - x - 2 = (2x^2 + 3x^2) + (-x - x) + (-3 - 2) = 5x^2 - 2x - 5$
10. **Denominator:**
- $x(x-1)(x-1) = x(x-1)^2$
11. **Simplified third expression:**
$$\frac{5x^2 - 2x - 5}{x(x-1)^2}$$
12. **For the fourth expression numerator:**
- $2x^2 - x + 3x^2 - 2 = (2x^2 + 3x^2) - x - 2 = 5x^2 - x - 2$
13. **Denominator:**
- $(x-1)(x-1) = (x-1)^2$
14. **Simplified fourth expression:**
$$\frac{5x^2 - x - 2}{(x-1)^2}$$
**Final answers:**
1. $$\frac{5x^2 - 5}{(x-1)^2}$$
2. $$\frac{5x^2 - 5}{x(x-1)^2}$$
3. $$\frac{5x^2 - 2x - 5}{x(x-1)^2}$$
4. $$\frac{5x^2 - x - 2}{(x-1)^2}$$
