Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

k = xy

Putting values of x and y in the equation

k = (5)(-3.5)

= - 17.5

Finding value of x when y = 10

k = xy

- 17.5 = x10

Bringing like terms on one side

- 17.5 - 10 = x

-27.5 = x

Given :-

The slope of the line through points (3,y) and (4,10) is 7 .

To Find :-

The value of y .

Solution :-

As we know that the slope of the line is difference of ordinate divided by the difference of absicca as ,

$\longrightarrow$ m = y -10 / 3 - 4

$\longrightarrow$ 7 (-1) = y -10

$\longrightarrow$ -7 = y -10

$\longrightarrow$ y = 10 -7

$\longrightarrow$ y = 3

Hence the required answer is 3.
