Apologies for the incorrect answer.
To make the two expressions equivalent, we can set the exponents equal to each other:
x * 6 = 18.
To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 6:
x = 18/6 = 3.
Therefore, the correct exponent that would make the two expressions equivalent is x = 3.

To find the exponent that would make the two expressions equivalent, we can use the power rule of exponents. According to the power rule, when raising a power to another power with the same base, we multiply the exponents.
In this case, we have (16^x)^6 = 16^18. Applying the power rule, we can multiply the exponents on the left side to get 16^(6x) = 16^18.
Since the bases (16 in this case) are the same on both sides of the equation, we can equate the exponents. Therefore, 6x = 18.
To solve for x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 6:
6x/6 = 18/6. Simplifying, we have x = 3.
So, the exponent that would make the two expressions equivalent is x = 3.
