18\times 18+\left(x+18\right)x=18\left(x+18\right)
Variable x cannot be equal to -18 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x+18.
324+\left(x+18\right)x=18\left(x+18\right)
Multiply 18 and 18 to get 324.
324+x^{2}+18x=18\left(x+18\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply x+18 by x.
324+x^{2}+18x=18x+324
Use the distributive property to multiply 18 by x+18.
324+x^{2}+18x-18x=324
Subtract 18x from both sides.
324+x^{2}=324
Combine 18x and -18x to get 0.
x^{2}=324-324
Subtract 324 from both sides.
x^{2}=0
Subtract 324 from 324 to get 0.
x=0 x=0
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x=0
The equation is now solved. Solutions are the same.
18\times 18+\left(x+18\right)x=18\left(x+18\right)

Use the distributive property to multiply x+18 by x.
324+x^{2}+18x=18x+324
Use the distributive property to multiply 18 by x+18.
324+x^{2}+18x-18x=324
Subtract 18x from both sides.
324+x^{2}=324
Combine 18x and -18x to get 0.
324+x^{2}-324=0
Subtract 324 from both sides.
x^{2}=0
Subtract 324 from 324 to get 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and 0 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±0}{2}
Take the square root of 0^{2}.
x=0
Divide 0 by 2.
