Answer:

x=3\text{ or } x=-15

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

|2x+12|=18

Definition of Absolute Value:

2x+12=18\text{ or } 2x+12=-18

Subtract 12 from both sides for both equations:

2x=6\text{ or } 2x=-30

Divide both sides by 2 for both equations:

x=3\text{ or } x=-15

And we're done!
