1

First, understand the functions given: L(x) = x - 2 and M(x) = x^2.

To find L/M(5), calculate L(5) and M(5) separately. Start with L(5) by substituting x = 5 into L(x): L(5) = 5 - 2.

Next, calculate M(5) by substituting x = 5 into M(x): M(5) = 5^2.

Now, find L/M(5) by dividing L(5) by M(5).

Simplify the fraction obtained from L(5)/M(5) to get the final result.
