Does someone know how to solve this equation?

\[ 6x^2 + 18x = 0 \]

It can be solved by following exactly the same procedures that solved the other two questions that you posted within the past 15 minutes.
Since I'm here already, here is the solution to this one:
6x² + 18x = 0
Divide each side of the equation by 6 :
x² + 3x = 0
Factor the left side:
x(x+ 3) = 0
This statement is true if x=0 or if x=3.
The solution to this one is even the same as the solution to the last one you posted. You really ought to take a break, go back, review the solutions you've been given, and try to solve a few on your own.

To solve the equation 6 x 2 + 18 x = 0 , we factor it to get 6 x ( x + 3 ) = 0 . The solutions are x = 0 and x = − 3 .
