Answer:

(69,979)

Explanation:

In the coordinates, x is represented as 69. We can now insert this into the equation.

y = 13x + 82

Now to insert x.

y = 13(69) + 82

Now we can multiply 13 by 69.

13*69 = 897

Now fix the equation.

y = 897 + 82

Now add to get our y.

897 + 82 = 979

Substitute into the equation.

y = 979

And there is our answer. We now need to put this into the coordinates.

And we get our final answer of (69,979).

Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
