1. **State the problem:** Find the x- and y-intercepts of the line given by the equation $x + 10y = 20$.
2. **Recall the intercept rules:**
- The x-intercept occurs where $y=0$.
- The y-intercept occurs where $x=0$.
3. **Find the x-intercept:**
Set $y=0$ in the equation:
$$x + 10(0) = 20 \implies x = 20$$
So, the x-intercept is at the point $(20, 0)$.
4. **Find the y-intercept:**
Set $x=0$ in the equation:
$$0 + 10y = 20 \implies 10y = 20 \implies y = \frac{20}{10} = 2$$
So, the y-intercept is at the point $(0, 2)$.
5. **Final answer:**
- x-intercept: $20$
- y-intercept: $2$
