Answer:

y = -1/5 x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point slope form is expressed as;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is the point on the line

Given the equation y = 5x -1

Slope m = 5

Slope of the line perpendicular to the line will bw M = -1/5

Substitute into the equation

y - 8 = -1/5(x-10)

5(y-8) = -(x-10)

5y - 40 = -x+10

5y = -x+10+40

5y = -x+50

y = -1/5 x + 10

Hence the required equation is y = -1/5 x + 10

What is the solution to the system of linear equations? <br> {2x+4y=38 <br> 10x+3y=105
natali 33 [55]
This is the concept of simultaneous equations, the question requires us to solve the system of equations given by:
2x+4y=38
10x+3y=105
from the top equation;
2x=38-4y
dividing through by 2 we get:
x=19-2y......(*)
substituting (*) in the second equation we get:
10x+3y=105
10(19-2y)+3y=105
190-20y+3y=105
collecting like terms we get:
-20y+3y=105-190
-17y=-85
dividing both sides by -17 we get:
(-17y)/(-17)=(-85)/(-17)
y=5
thus
x=19-2y
x=19-2*5
x=19-10
x=9
thus
x=9 and y=5
