Any points ON THE x-AXIS would be y=0, and no restrictions are made for the values of x, so the x-axis, shown as an ordered pair, will be (x,0).

Find points (x,0) which are 13 units from (12,5).
This will use, with the given symbolism, the Distance Formula:

SOLVE FOR x.
You should expect to find TWO values.
