In the chess game of algebra, there is one move that signals checkmate. It is isolating the variable.

Your opponent is confusion and chaos. All the numbers and symbols jumbled together.

Your King is the variable, 'x'. Your entire game revolves around its safety and sovereignty.

The ultimate power move is to systematically and ruthlessly clear the board around your King.

You use pawns (addition/subtraction) to clear the first line of defense.

You use bishops and rooks (multiplication/division) to attack from all angles.

Every move must maintain the balance of the board (the equals sign).

The game ends when your King, 'x', stands alone on one side of the board, victorious.

The other side of the board reveals the prize, the solution, the spoils of your victory.

This isn't just solving. This is a display of tactical power. It's your board, your rules. Make your move.
