20x+6=y<br><br> 19x+7=y<br><br> answer please
morpeh [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

what we trying to find the value of x and y

20x+6=y

x intercept,y=0

20x+6=0-6

20x/20=-6/20

×=-0.3

y intercept,x=0

20(0)+6=y

0+6=y

6=y

(-0.3,0)

19x+7=y

y intercept,x =0

19(0)+7=y

0+7=y

7=y

x intercept,y=0

19x+7=0-7

19x=-7

19x/19=-7/19

x=-0.37
