Recalling the LCD for Project Efficiency Rate Formulas

In an introductory operations training module, a team is analyzing two efficiency rate formulas represented by the rational expressions 3xx23x10\frac{3x}{x^2-3x-10} and 5x2+3x+2\frac{5}{x^2+3x+2}. To combine these rates for a unified performance report, you need to find their Least Common Denominator (LCD). Recall the required steps to complete this process: first, write the completely factored forms of both denominators, and then write the final LCD for the two expressions.
