![This image presents a multiple-choice question with four options for an educational website, likely focused on mathematics. Each option involves a fraction containing square roots and the variable "x". Here are the options in detail:
1. The first option (top-left) displays:
\[
\frac{1}{5\sqrt{x^2}}
\]
The numerator is 1, and the denominator is the product of 5 and the square root of \( x^2 \).
2. The second option (top-right) displays:
\[
\frac{1}{\sqrt{5x}}
\]
The numerator is 1, and the denominator is the square root of the product of 5 and \( x \).
3. The third option (bottom-left) displays:
\[
\frac{1}{5\sqrt{x}}
\]
The numerator is 1, and the denominator is the product of 5 and the square root of \( x \).
4. The fourth option (bottom-right) displays:
\[
\frac{1}{\sqrt{5x^2}}
