Identify the coefficients of the variables x and y from each equation to form the coefficient matrix A. For the first equation, the coefficients are 6 and 5, and for the second equation, they are 5 and 4. So, matrix A is: \(\begin{bmatrix} 6 & 5 \\ 5 & 4 \end{bmatrix}\).
Next, write the variables x and y as a column matrix X, which is: \(\begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \end{bmatrix}\).
Then, write the constants from the right side of the equations as the constant matrix B. From the equations, the constants are 13 and 10, so matrix B is: \(\begin{bmatrix} 13 \\ 10 \end{bmatrix}\).
Now, express the system of equations in the matrix form $AX = B$, where A is the coefficient matrix, X is the variable matrix, and B is the constant matrix.
Putting it all together, the matrix equation is: \(\begin{bmatrix} 6 & 5 \\ 5 & 4 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 13 \\ 10 \end{bmatrix}\).
