to find an ordered pair that satisfies the next equation

10x + 6y = 100​

you need to assume the value of 1 variable and solve the equation for the other variable.

For example, if x = 0, then

10(0) + 6y = 100​

6y = 100​

6y/6 = 100​/6 dividing by 6 at both sides

y = 50/3

If y = 0, then,

10x + 6(0) = 100​

10x = 100​

10x/10 = 100​/10 dividing by 10 at both sides

x = 10

Then, (0, 50/3) and (10, 0) are two ordered pairs that satisfy the equation.
