The slope of the tangent is equal to zero when the derivative is equal to zero, in other words when the function attains a local extremum (maximum or minimum)

So we have to ask ourselves, at which "x" value does f(x) admit a maximum or minimum.

From the graph we can tell that it is at the point of abscissa 2

Answer: x=2
