You might see a relationship if you were to write these equations in slope-intercept form:
--->
---->
Do you see that the slopes are negative reciprocals of each other?
Two lines whose slopes are negative reciprocals are perpendicular.

5y+3x=10
5y= -3x+10
/5
y= -3x/5 +2..............1
3y-5x=6
3y=5x+6
/3
y=5x/3+2
You find that the slopes of these two lines are negative reciprocal of each other. m1*m2=-1
3 x + 5 y = 10 .............1
-5 x + 3 y = 6 .............2
Eliminate y
multiply (1)by -3
Multiply (2) by 5
-9x-15y=-30
-25x+15y=30
Add the two equations
-34x=0
/-34
x=0
plug value of x in (1)
3x+5y=10
5y=10
5 y = 10
5 y = 10
y = 2
They intersect at (0,2)

The equations in point-slope form are:
y = (-3/5)x + 2
y = (5/3)x + 2
Since the slopes are negative reciprocals of each other, the lines are perpendicular. And they have the same y-intercept, y=2
The graphs are shown below:
