To find the x-intercept of the equation, set y = 0 and solve for x.
In this case, the equation is -2x + 4 / (x + 3).
Setting y = 0:
0 = -2x + 4 / (x + 3)
To remove the fraction, multiply both sides of the equation by (x + 3):
0(x + 3) = -2x + 4
Simplify:
0 = -2x + 4
Add 2x to both sides:
2x = 4
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 2
Therefore, the x-intercept is 2.
