To add the rational expressions given in the problem, we first need to identify what they are. However, it seems like the expressions provided might be a bit unclear. Let’s first simplify the expression for \(2x + 3x + 5\).

1. Combine like terms for \(2x + 3x\):
\[
2x + 3x = 5x
\]
So, we have:
\[
5x + 5
\]

This can be written as:
\[
5(x + 1)
\]

Since this seems to be a straightforward addition of linear terms and constants, it doesn't seem to directly match any of the options you provided. On reviewing, it appears there are a couple of fractions listed that could represent the expression in different forms.

To analyze the provided choices:

1. **5x + 10 over x^2 + 5x**: This does not align with our simplified version.
2. **13 over x + 5**: This form does not correlate either.
3. **52x + 5 over 2x + 5**: Doesn't match.
4. **2x + 8x^2 + 5x**: This would need further simplification and doesn't add up to our evaluated expression above.

None of the options given directly correspond to the sum we calculated \(5x + 5\).

If you meant for different expressions or fractions to be added, please clarify the initial terms or the correct notation, and I can provide further assistance!
