Answer:

x = 19

Explanation:

You would use vertical angles to move the 8x - 14 so that we could use the Consecutive Interior angles theorem. Which says that consecutive angles equal 180. So, you would set up your equation: 8x-14+2x+4 = 180. Add the 8 and 2 = 10. Add the -14 and 4 = -10. You get 10x-10 = 180. 180+10 = 190. 190/10 = 19. X = 19
