Find the x-intercept:

The x-intercept is where the graph of this linear equation intersects (crosses) the x-axis. At this point, y is zero, so by setting y = 0 in the equation and solving for x, you will get the value of x where the line crosses the x-axis, also known as the x-intercept. So we'll set y = 0.

Divide both sides by 2.
This is the x-intercept! This is clear from the graph of the linear equation.
