Answer:

True

Explanation:

we know that

A rational function is the ratio of two polynomials, in which the denominator has a degree of at least 1 . In other words, there must be a variable in the denominator.

In this problem we have


f(x)=(6x-2)/(x+5)

The numerator is a linear polynomial (degree 1)

The denominator is a linear polynomial (degree 1)

therefore

The function f(x) is a rational function

The statement is true
