The line perpendicular to \(y = 4x - 10\) will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line \(y = 4x - 10\). The slope of \(y = 4x - 10\) is \(4\), so the perpendicular line will have a slope of \(-\frac{1}{4}\) (negative reciprocal). Given that the line passes through the origin \((0, 0)\), we can use the point-slope form of a line, \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\), with the slope \(m = -\frac{1}{4}\) and the point \((x_1, y_1) = (0, 0)\). $4\[y - 0 = -\frac{1}{4}(x - 0)\]$$ \[y = -\frac{1}{4}x\] Therefore, the reduced equation of the straight line that is perpendicular to \(y = 4x - 10\) and passes through the origin is \(y = -\frac{1}{4}x\)

25) Paulo saves R$250.00 per month and keeps the money in a safe in his own home. At the end of 12 months, deposit the total saved into the savings account. Consider that, each year, deposits are always carried out on the same day and month; the annual yield on the savings account is 7%; and, the yield total is obtained by the interest compounding process. So, the amount that Paulo will have in his savings account after 3 years, from the moment you started saving part of your money monthly, it will be A) R$6,644.70. B) R$ 9,210.00. C) R$ 9,644.70.
