18=3\left(x-3\right)
Subtract 14 from 32 to get 18.
18=3x-9
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-3.
3x-9=18
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
3x=18+9
Add 9 to both sides.
3x=27
Add 18 and 9 to get 27.
x=\frac{27}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=9
Divide 27 by 3 to get 9.
