The point on the line with the x-coordinate
\(x = -10\) is
\((-10, -2)\)

To plot the point on the line with the x-coordinate
\(x = -10\), we need to find the corresponding y-coordinate on the given line.

The equation of the line is
\(-5x + y - 48 = 0\). We can substitute
\(x = -10\) into this equation and solve for y:


\[ -5(-10) + y - 48 = 0 \]

Simplifying the equation:


\[ 50 + y - 48 = 0 \]


\[ y = -2 \]

So, when
\(x = -10\), the corresponding y-coordinate is
\(y = -2\).

Therefore, the point on the line with the x-coordinate
\(x = -10\) is
\((-10, -2)\).
