The definition of an x intercept is when y equals 0. If y were to equal 0, you would have 3x -4(0)= 24, which is equal to 3x - 0 = 24. Using the addition property of equality, you would add 0 to both sides, and get 3x = 24. Finally, using the division property of equality, you have x = 8. So the coordinates of the x intercept would be (8,0), as your y was defined as 0. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions about my explanation and feel free to ask more questions.

The x intercept is whre the line crosses the x axis or where y=0

so set y to 0 and solve for the value of x that makes the equation true

3x-4(0)=24
3x-0=24
3x=24
divide both sides by 3
x=8

x=8
y=0

(x,y)
(8,0)
the point is (8,0)

Answer:

22.05

Step-by-step explanation:

21/2 has 5 halves

10.5 divided by 5= 2.1

2.1= 1/2 2.1 x 10 = 21

2.1 / 2 = 1.05

21 + 1.05= 22.05

1 5/6 −(x− 7/12 )+2 1/12 =0.9
iren [92.7K]
The answer is x=3.6 or 3 3/5.

First we convert the decimal answer to a fraction; 0.9 is read as "nine tenths," so the corresponding fraction is 9/10:

1 5/6 - (x - 7/12) + 2 1/12 = 9/10

Now we find a common denominator.  The first thing that 6, 12 and 10 will all divide into is 60:

1 50/60 - (x - 35/60) + 2 5/60 = 54/60

Distributing the negative, we have:
1 50/60 - x + 35/60 + 2 5/60 = 54/60

Combining like terms, we have:
-x + 4 30/60 = 54/60

Subtracting 4 30/60 from each side, we have:
-x + 4 30/60 - 4 30/60 = 54/60 - 4 30/60
-x = -3 36/60

Divide both sides by -1:
-x/-1 = (-3 36/60)/-1
x = 3 36/60 = 3 3/5 = 3.6
