To solve the inequality 18 - 6x > 12, we need to isolate x.

First, subtract 18 from both sides:
-6x > 12 - 18
-6x > -6
Then, divide by -6 (since we're dividing by a negative number, the inequality sign will switch):
x < 1

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x is less than 1. The solution represented on a number line would have an open circle at 1, with an arrow to the left indicating all values less than 1.
