Sure, let's evaluate the given expression step by step.
The expression to evaluate is:
[tex]\[
18 \div 9 + 2 \cdot 6
\][/tex]
1. Division: According to the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS), we need to perform division first.
[tex]\[
18 \div 9 = 2
\][/tex]
2. Multiplication: Next, we perform the multiplication.
[tex]\[
2 \cdot 6 = 12
\][/tex]
3. Addition: Finally, we add the results of the division and the multiplication.
[tex]\[
2 + 12 = 14
\][/tex]
So, the value of the expression [tex]\( 18 \div 9 + 2 \cdot 6 \)[/tex] is:
[tex]\[
\boxed{14}
\][/tex]
