A line is defined by the equation y = two-thirds x minus 6. The line passes through a point whose y-coordinate is 0. What is the x-coordinate of this point? A coordinate plane.

  9

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the given information into the equation and solve for x.

  y = (2/3)x -6

  0 = (2/3)x -6 . . . . . substitute for y

  0 = x - 9 . . . . . . . . multiply by 3/2

  9 = x . . . . . . . . . . . .add 9

The x-coordinate of the x-intercept point is 9.

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.
