Multiple Choice

As a financial modeler at a logistics company, you are using the rational equation x+13x27x+10=6x54x2\frac{x+13}{x^2-7x+10} = \frac{6}{x-5} - \frac{4}{x-2} to project the breakeven point, xx, for a new delivery route. When you calculate the candidate value for xx, you get x=5x = 5. According to the five-step strategy for solving rational equations, what is the final, valid solution for this model?
