What does it mean to solve for 'x'?
What does it mean to solve for 'x'?
To find the value of 'x' in an equation.
Solve for x: x + 5 = 12
Solve for x: x + 5 = 12
x = 7 (Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation)
Solve for x: 2x = 18
Solve for x: 2x = 18
x = 9 (Divide both sides of the equation by 2)
Solve for x: 3(x-4) = 15
Solve for x: 3(x-4) = 15
