Identify Goal: Identify the goal of the problem.We need to solve for the variable A in the equation x+12=14. To do this, we will isolate x on one side of the equation.
Subtract to Isolate: Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation to isolate x.x+12−12=14−12This simplifies to:x=2
Check Solution: Check the solution by substituting the value of x back into the original equation.2+12=14This simplifies to:14=14Since both sides of the equation are equal, the solution x=2 is correct.
