Answer:
x = [tex]\frac{37}{12}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given k(x) = 6x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and k(x) = 18, the equate the right sides, that is
6x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 18 ( multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction )
12x - 1 = 36 ( add 1 to both sides )
12x = 37 ( divide both sides by 12 )
x = [tex]\frac{37}{12}[/tex]
