Hello!!! Princess Sakura here ^^

Explanation:

We know that in a x-intercept the y-value is zero so that's what we plug in...

$y=3x-6\\(0)=3x-6$

I know that might be confusing but all we have to do is add 6 to both sides to make it easier to use...

$(0)=3x-6\\6=3x$

Now we solve it normally by dividing the 3 to both sides canceling itself and getting the answer of...

$6=3x\\x=2$

So the x-intercept would be (2,0).
