A primary source saw something first-hand. A secondary source only heard about it.
Step 1: Y= 27 - 4x
To find X - intercept / zero, substitute Y = 0
0 = 27 - 4x
Step 2: 0 = 27 - 4x
Move variable to the left-hand side and change it's sign.
4x = 27
Step 3: 4x = 27
divide both sides of the equation by 4
X = 27/4
solution: X = 27/4
Alternate form: X = 6 3/4, X = 6.75
