To find out which one among the given options represents a quotient from the expression \( \frac{x}{5} + (7x - 17) \), we first need to analyze the expression.
The expression is the sum of two terms: \( \frac{x}{5} \) and \( (7x - 17) \).
A quotient is typically defined as the result of division, which in mathematical expressions can be represented by a fraction.
Among the options provided, \( \frac{x}{5} \) clearly represents a division of \( x \) by \( 5 \), which is a quotient.
Thus, the answer you're looking for is:
\( \frac{x}{5} \)
