A point with coordinates (x,y)(x,\ y) is randomly selected such that 0≤x≤100\leq x \leq10 and 0≤y≤100\leq y \leq10. What is the probability that the coordinates of the point will satisfy 2x+5y≥202x+5y \geq 20? Express your answer as a common fraction.

Original LaTeX notation
A point with coordinates $(x,\ y)$ is randomly selected such that $0\leq x \leq10$ and $0\leq y \leq10$. What is the probability that the coordinates of the point will satisfy $2x+5y \geq 20$? Express your answer as a common fraction.
