Answer:
{30}
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution set can be written a couple of ways:
Roster: lists the elements of the set:
x = {30}
Set builder notation: defines the elements of the set according to some rule or rules
{x : x = 30}
The latter form can have variations that define the domain of x on the left, such as
[tex]\{x\in\mathbb{Z}:x=30\}[/tex]
This is pronounced, "x is an element of the set of integers such that x is equal to 30." This sort of notation is more commonly used when the set is specified by an inequality or a functional relationship. You may see the colon (:) replaced by a vertical bar (|).

Comment on the above notations
I don't like the notation x = {30} because the solution to the equation is a value, not a set of values. I prefer to write it as x ∈ {30}. "x is an element of the set containing 30." The "is an element of" symbol (∈) is not always available, so the equal sign is often used instead.
