The equation of the graphed line is 2x – 3y = 12.

A coordinate plane with a line passing through (0, negative 4) and (6, 0).
What is the x-intercept of the graph?

Explanation:

Well, if you're trying to find the x-intercept, you should look where the line crosses the x-axis. If the line crosses at 6, then the x-intercept is 6. So what I'm saying is the answer is 6.

Btw, if you're trying to find the y-intercept, just look where the line crosses the y-axis, (vertical axis) and then that's your answer.

Example: If there is a line crossing through a 5 on the y-axis, that is your y-intercept.

Example: If there is a line crossing through a 5 on the x-axis, that is your x-intercept.

I hope this answers your question.
