Solve the equation. Be sure to check your proposed solution by substituting it for the variable in the original equation.
\[
x-12=17
\]
Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
A. The solution set is (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
B. The solution set is $\{x \mid x$ is a real number $\}$.
C. The solution set is $\varnothing$.
Final Answer: The solution set is \(\boxed{29}\).
Step 1 :The given equation is \(x - 12 = 17\). To solve for \(x\), we need to isolate \(x\) on one side of the equation. We can do this by adding 12 to both sides of the equation.
Step 2 :This gives us \(x = 29\).
Step 3 :We can check this by substituting \(x = 29\) into the original equation. This gives us \(29 - 12 = 17\), which is a true statement.
Step 4 :Final Answer: The solution set is \(\boxed{29}\).
