Given 2x-3y=12 how do you find the x intercept? Algebra Graphs of Linear Equations and Functions Intercepts by Substitution 1 Answer xtaalx May 30, 2018 #x =6# Explanation: The x intercept occurs where #y=0#, so you just substitue that into the equation and solve for a value of #x#. #2x -3*0 = 12# #2x = 12# #x = 6# Answer link Related questions What is the x and y Intercepts?
