We move all terms to the left:
2x(x-6)-(18)=0
We multiply parentheses
2x^2-12x-18=0
a = 2; b = -12; c = -18;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -122-4·2·(-18)
Δ = 288
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{288}=\sqrt{144*2}=\sqrt{144}*\sqrt{2}=12\sqrt{2}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)-12\sqrt{2}}{2*2}=\frac{12-12\sqrt{2}}{4} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)+12\sqrt{2}}{2*2}=\frac{12+12\sqrt{2}}{4} $
