When solving an equation, we need to make sure that all variables are on one side and all numbers are on the other side.
Since we have numbers on both sides, we need to move all of them to one side:-

Answer:
a₁ = 37
Step-by-step explanation:
In an arithmetic progression the common difference d is
d = a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ , that is
2x - 18 - (x + 1) = 2x - 1 - (2x - 18) ← distribute and simplify both sides
2x - 18 - x - 1 = 2x - 1 - 2x + 18
x - 19 = 17 ( add 19 to both sides )
x = 36
Thus
a₁ = x + 1 = 36 + 1 = 37
The answer is 45 it's the easiest
I assume you want it graphed, so I added a picture below.
