Answer:

A or (2x+1)/(x-1)

Explanation:

Let's simplify the top of the fraction first.

1. Simplify the numerator.

2x^2 -7x-4=(2x+1)(x-4)

2. Simplify the denominator.

x^2-5x+4=(x-4)(x-1)

Now we have:

((2x+1)(x-4))/((x-4)(x-1))

We see that there is an (x-4) both on the numerator and denominator.

We can remove (x-4) by division.

Doing that, we have:

(2x+1)/(x-1) or A
