Since this is in the Mathematics subject my best answer would be Rational.
Rates and ratios help us find relationships between numbers and proportions.

Y = x - 28/5. The slope here is 1. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1.
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(k,2)....x1 = k and y1 = 2
(7,0)...x2 = 7 and y2 = 0
sub
slope = (0 - 2) / (7 - k)
slope = -2 / ?......now if we want the slope to be -1..that means the number where the question mark is has to be 2....for that to happen, k has to be 5...because 7 - 5 = 2.
so ur answer is : k = 5
