If we have an equation and a y-coordinate, to find the x-coordinate, we can just substitute in the y-coordinate into the equation and solve for x. This is modeled below:
y = 2/3x - 6
0 = 2/3x - 6
To simplify, we should add 6 to both sides to get the variable term alone on the right side of the equation.
6 = 2/3x
Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2 to undo the coefficient of 2/3 on the variable x.
x = 9
Therefore, the x-coordinate of this point is 9.
Hope this helps!
