Answer: x= 85/13, y= 17/2
Solution:
(Finding the x-intercept(s))
10(x + y) + 3x = 85
Isolate the dependent variable
y= -13x/10 + 17/2
To find the x-intercept, set y = 0
-13x/10 + 17/2 = 0
Solve the equation
X = 85/ 13
_______________
(Find the y-intercept(s))
10(x + y) + 3x = 85
Isolate the dependent variable
y = -13x/10 + 17/2
TO FIND THE y-intercept, set x = 0
y= -30 x 0/10 + 17/2
Apply Zero Property of Multiplication
y = 17/2
