Fill in the Blank

A logistics quality analyst is reviewing the formula x+13x27x+10=6x54x2\frac{x+13}{x^2-7x+10} = \frac{6}{x-5} - \frac{4}{x-2} used to model package flow. The algebraic solving process yields a candidate value of x=5x = 5. Since x=5x = 5 makes the denominator of the original expressions equal to zero, it is a restricted value. In mathematics, a candidate solution that must be discarded because it violates the domain restrictions of the original equation is called an ____ solution.
