Answer: (6,0)
Step-by-step explanation: To find the x-intercept, we plug a 0 in for y.
So we have 2x - 3(0) = 12.
Simplifying from here, we have 2x = 12.
Now divide both sides by 2 and we get <em>x = 6</em>.
So our x-intercept is 6.
This means that our line crosses the x-axis 6
units to the right of the origin or at the point (6,0).
Based on the given situation above, the given values are 8 kilometers and 24 minutes. To simplify these values, we will come up with the result of 1 km in 3 minutes. Therefore, the winner of the New York marathon ran 0.33 kms per one minute so the runners unit rate is 0.33kms/minute.
