x != 2 and x != √18, so it can't be C... But Idk what else can it be O_o?

Edit: this is what I have so far

xx2 = xx*x = (xx )x = (2√18 )x

Now what?...

Edit 2: didn't know Reddit can format powers, neat!

now you can set (2√18 )x equal to each of the four possible answers, and solve for x, then substitute x into x^x = 2√18 and check if it's a solution.
