In the rectangular coordinate system, what is the x-intercept of a line passing through (10, 3) and (−2, −3)?	Select the correct option:	A) 4	B) 2	C) 0	D) − 2	E) − 4

Rationale: "slope = rise / run = 6 / 12 = 1 / 2 the equation of the line is y = ( 1 / 2 ) x + b 3 = ( 1 / 2 ) ( 10 ) + b b = - 2 the equation of the line is y = ( 1 / 2 ) x - 2 to find the x - intercept , let y = 0 : 0 = ( 1 / 2 ) x - 2 x = 4 the answer is a ."
Answer: A
