An inventory specialist at a distribution center is simplifying the average storage cost expression $\frac{10x^2 + 5x - 20}{5x}$, where $x$ represents the number of units. According to the rules for dividing a polynomial by a monomial, why does the variable $x$ remain in the denominator of the simplified constant term ($-\frac{4}{x}$)?

A logistics analyst uses the expression $\frac{10x^2 + 5x - 20}{5x}$ to calculate fuel efficiency for a fleet of vehicles. To simplify the first term, $\frac{10x^2}{5x}$, the analyst must apply the Quotient Property of Exponents. Which of the following correctly represents how this property is used to simplify the variable $x$?
