X = k and y = 5
Hence, 4*k -5*5 = 10
4k - 25 = 10
4k = 10+25
4k = 35
k = 35/4
k = 8.75
Hence, 4*k -5*5 = 10
4k - 25 = 10
4k = 10+25
4k = 35
k = 35/4
k = 8.75

The value of k is 35/4.
Given:
The equation of a line is 4x-5y = 10.
The point (k, 5) lies on the given line.
To Find:
The value of k.
Solution:
We have been given an equation of a line 4x-5y = 10.
The point (k, 5) lies on the line 4x-5y = 10. This means that on substituting (x, y) as (k, 5) the equation stands valid.
Hence putting x = k and y = 5, we get:
4(k) - 5(5) = 10
⇒ 4k = 10 + 25
⇒ 4k = 35
⇒ k = 35/4.
Hence, the value of k = 35/4.
∴ The value of k is 35/4.
