To find the x-intercept of the line given by the equation \(8X - 4Y = -24\), we set \(Y = 0\) and solve for \(X\).
Starting with the equation:
\[
8X - 4(0) = -24
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
8X = -24
\]
Now, divide both sides by 8:
\[
X = \frac{-24}{8} = -3
\]
Thus, the x-intercept is \(-3\).
So, the answer is \(-3\).
