To solve the equation \( 3x - 3 = 6x + 18 \), we can follow these steps:

  1. Start with the equation: \[ 3x - 3 = 6x + 18 \]

  2. Subtract \( 3x \) from both sides: \[ -3 = 3x + 18 \]

  3. Next, subtract \( 18 \) from both sides: \[ -3 - 18 = 3x \] \[ -21 = 3x \]

  4. Now, divide both sides by \( 3 \): \[ x = -7 \]

Thus, the solution for \( x \) is: \[ \boxed{-7} \]

This matches one of the provided options.

Short answer

\( x = -7 \)
