The solution

You have entered [src]
(-9*x + 18)*(4 - x) = 0
$$\left(4 - x\right) \left(18 - 9 x\right) = 0$$
Detail solution
Expand the expression in the equation
$$\left(4 - x\right) \left(18 - 9 x\right) = 0$$
We get the quadratic equation
$$9 x^{2} - 54 x + 72 = 0$$
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = 9$$
$$b = -54$$
$$c = 72$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-54)^2 - 4 * (9) * (72) = 324

Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$x_{1} = 4$$
$$x_{2} = 2$$
