The given equation is expressed as
x + 3 = 2x - 18
Subtracting x from both sides of the equation, it becomes
x - x + 3 = 2x - x - 18
3 = x - 18
Adding 18 to both sides of the equation, it becomes
3 + 18 = x - 18 + 18
21 = x
x = 21
Since there is only one value for x, the correct option is
a. A single solution
