Find the x intercept of this equation:

Question

2x 3y = 12

Answer 1

make the y variable disappear for the moment because you don't need it to find the x-intercept. In finding x-intercepts y=0. So,

2x 3(0) = 12

2x = 12

Then, solve it from there. Divide both sides by 2 to remove the constant form the x variable.

x = 6   should be your answer.

And the x-intercept would be (6,0)
