The x-intercept is what x is when y = 0, so plug in y = 0 into the equation and solve for x..can you do that?

Answer 4

i dont get it

Answer 5

im bad at this kind of math

Answer 6

Plug in y = 0:

\(-2x+\dfrac{ 1 }{ 2 }y=18\)

\(-2x+\dfrac{ 1 }{ 2 }(0)=18\)


Multiply:

\(-2x+0=18\)

Add:

\(-2x=18\)
