Answer

$$\frac{x+5}{x-1}$$

Work Step by Step

Using the rules of exponents and cancelling common factors in the numerator and the denominator, we find: $$\frac{\left(x+5\right)\left(x^2+x+1\right)}{x^3-1}\\ \frac{\left(x+5\right)\left(x^2+x+1\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x^2+x+1\right)} \\ \frac{x+5}{x-1}$$
