Absolutely, let's solve the given equation step by step:
1. The equation given is:
[tex]\[
3x = 2x + 18
\][/tex]
2. First, we need to isolate [tex]\(x\)[/tex] on one side of the equation. To do this, we will subtract [tex]\(2x\)[/tex] from both sides:
[tex]\[
3x - 2x = 2x + 18 - 2x
\][/tex]
3. Simplify both sides:
[tex]\[
x = 18
\][/tex]
So, the solution to the equation [tex]\(3x = 2x + 18\)[/tex] is:
[tex]\[
x = 18
\][/tex]
Therefore, the value of [tex]\(x\)[/tex] is [tex]\(18\)[/tex].
