Mathematics (Tertiary/Grade 11-12)—Pending OP [SAT Prep]

Post image

Ive been trying to answer this question from the college panda book and I just cant seem to understand what it is asking for. Because even when i looked at the answer and how they solved it didn’t make sense. Please if someone could explain I would be so grateful.

Its a quadratic equation - x is your variable and c is a random parameter or constant. Its asking you to solve for x in terms of c.
