Two point charges are fixed on the Xaxis...

Two point charges are fixed on the Xaxis , `q_(1)=12.0mC` is located at the origin and `q_(2)=-3.0mC` is located at point A, with `x_(2)=8.0cm`. Where should a third charge `q_(3)`, be placed on the X-axis so that the total, electrostatic force acting on it is zero?
