It depends on what you mean by solve: simplify, evaluate or rationalise the denominator. The answer will also depend on the radical expression.

12 + 5 equals...
To solve for x, we'd have to know what this expression equals.
You don't, unless you know either the value of x or what the expression equals.

√3 - 9 is an expression, and so there is nothing to be solved. It can be evaluated - use a calculator!
meaning to evaluate the variable in an expression. An algebraic expression is also a problem that contains no equals sign and you don't solve it, rather you simplify it.It means to solve something.
Take 3 and substitute into the expression given to you but not mentioned in the question here and evaluate the expression. "Sub and Solve" I say.
In algebra, you cannot solve 5x25 since there is no equation nor an inequality, only an expression.
There is nothing to solve in this equation because there is no =. If you accidentally omitted what the expression equals then resubmit it and I'll be happy to look at it
An expression cannot be solved. It may be simplified, but that is not the same thing. And how it is simplified depends on its form. An equation, or inequality, can be solved but, again, the method depends on its nature.
Square both sides of the equation to get rid of the radical sign. Then just solve as you normally would. Good luck! :-)
