Answer:

The restrictions are x≠2,4,5

Explanation:

First the denominators cannot be zero

x-2 ≠0 so x≠2

Then x-4 ≠0 so x≠4

Also, since we are dividing, when we flip the second expression, the numerator becomes the denominator, so it cannot be zero

2x-10≠0

2x≠10

x≠5

The restrictions are x≠2,4,5
