To solve the quadratic equation x^2 + 3x = 18, let's move all the terms to one side to get:
x^2 + 3x - 18 = 0
Next, we can factor the quadratic expression:
(x + 6)(x - 3) = 0
Setting each factor equal to zero, we get:
x + 6 = 0 or x - 3 = 0
Solving for x in each equation gives:
x = -6 or x = 3
Therefore, the solutions to the quadratic equation are:
x1 = -6
x2 = 3
