SOLUTION: 10x + 13y =154 then I moved the 13 y over to read 10x=154-13y then I divided by 10 to get the x alone to read x=15.4-1.3y then I get lost I need the value of x and y

Question 591307: 10x + 13y =154 then I moved the 13 y over to read
10x=154-13y then I divided by 10 to get the x alone to read
x=15.4-1.3y then I get lost I need the value of x and y

I'm assuming you want the x and y intercepts.



x-intercept


To find the x-intercept, plug in and solve for x


Start with the given equation.


Plug in .


Multiply and 0 to get 0.


Simplify.


Divide both sides by to isolate .


Reduce.


So the x-intercept is .

y-intercept


To find the y-intercept, plug in and solve for y


Start with the given equation.


Plug in .


Multiply and 0 to get 0.


Simplify.


Divide both sides by to isolate .


So the y-intercept is .
