What is the corresponding y-value for the x-value of 10 on the line defined by the equation y = 5x + 3?

  1. 53

  2. 8

  3. 25

  4. 50

The correct answer is: 53

The corresponding y-value for the x-value of 10 on the line defined by the equation y = 5x + 3 is not 53, as this would require the x-value to be 10.6, which is not possible. It is also not 8 or 25, as these are not solutions to the equation. The value of 5x + 3 can be found by substituting x = 10 into the equation, giving us y = 5(10) + 3 = 53. Therefore, A is the correct answer.
