Answer:

14

Explanation:

when two lines intersect, the opposite angles are equal: vertical angles rule

this means that 88 and 6x + 4 are the same, therefore we get the equation 6x+4 = 88.

subtracting 4 from both sides, we find that 6x = 84

we get our final answer by dividing each side of the equation by 6:

x = 14
