A) −6
B) - 1/2
C) 0
D) 2
E) 3


KEY CONCEPT: The x-intercept is the point where the y-coordinate = 0

So, take the equation of the line, y = 3x - 6, and replace y with 0 to get: 0 = 3x - 6
Solve, to get x = 2
So, the point (2, 0) lies ON the line, which means the x-intercept is 2

Answer: D

Cheers,
Brent
