Find the $$ x $$-intercept of the line $$ 18 x-5 y=12 $$. Write your answer as an integer or as a simplified proper or improper fraction, not as an ordered pair.

Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

Let $$ y = 0 $$ to find the $$ x $$-intercept. Substituting $$ y = 0 $$ into the equation:

$$
18x - 5(0) = 12
$$

This simplifies to:

$$
18x = 12
$$

Now, solve for $$ x $$ by dividing both sides by 18:

$$
x = \frac{12}{18}
$$

Simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, 6:

$$
x = \frac{12 \div 6}{18 \div 6} = \frac{2}{3}
$$
$$ x = \frac{2}{3} $$
