+The CSS **background-position-x** property sets the initial horizontal position (the x axis) of a background image. This position is defined relative to the coordinate system established by the [background-origin](https://www.codecademy.com/resources/docs/css/background/background-origin) property.
+
+Note that the value of background-position-x is overridden by any subsequent declarations of the background or [background-position](https://www.codecademy.com/resources/docs/css/background/background-position) shorthand properties. By default, a background image is placed at the top-left corner of an element and repeated both vertically and horizontally.
+
+## Syntax
+```pseudo
+background-position-x: value;
+```
+
+### Parameters
+Value can be one of the following:
+- Position keyword: `left`, `right`, `center`
+- Length and percentage values: `64px`, `5em`, `1cm`, `25%`
+- Global values: `inherit`, `initial`, `revert`, `revert-layer`, `unset`
+
+## Example
+In the following example we use the HTML div tag to set the background image with CSS.
+
+### HTML
+```html
+<div>
+</div>
+```
+
+### CSS
+```css
+div {
+    width: 300px;    
+    height: 300px;
+    background-color: grey;
+    background-image: url("../../../../../../media/cc_logo.png");
+    background-repeat: no-repeat;
+    background-position-x: center;
+}
+```
