Answer:

11/30

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(1/5, 1/6) = 30

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

(1/5×6/6)+(1/6×5/5)=?

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

630+530=?

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

6+5/30=11/30

The fraction cannot be simplified, final answer 11/30

Its B.

If $f(x)=4x+1$ and $g(x)=x^2-5$ then, $(\frac{g}{f})(x)=\frac{x^2-5}{4x+1}$ and $x\neq-\frac{1}{4}$ because if x were $-\frac{1}{4}$ then you would have division by 0.
