Set y to 0 in the equation y = mx + b, then rearrange to get x = -b/m. Boom, there's your x-intercept.

To find the x-intercept from the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), just set y to 0 and solve for x. Easy peasy!

Set y = 0 and solve. Done.

When y = 0 in the equation y = mx + b, then x = -b/m. That's your x-intercept!

Trust me, just set y to zero in y = mx + b, then solve for x. Works every time!
