Answer:
The points of discontinuity are: x=5 and x=1. The point of discontinuity x=5 can be removable.
Step-by-step explanation:
The points of discontinuity are those points where the function is not defined. To find such points, we should factorize the denominator of the function needs to be factorized.
![y= (x-5)/(x^2 - 6x + 5)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D%20%28x-5%29%2F%28x%5E2%20-%206x%20%2B%205%29)
Considering the quadratic equation of the form ax^2+bx+c =0, then using the quadratic (see attached image), where a=, b=- and c=5, we have that the roots are:
x=5 and x=1.
If we simplify the fraction, by removing the term (x-5) from both the numerator and the denominator, we get:
, so we removed the point of discontinuity x=5.
