ANSWER

The correct choice is 50.

Step-by-step explanation

It was given that,


m \angle3 = 3x - 16

and


m \angle4 = x + 84

The two given angles are vertically opposite to each other.

Recall that, vertically opposite angles are equal.

This implies that:


3x - 16 = x + 84

Group similar terms,


3x - x = 84 + 16


2x = 100

Divide both sides by 2


x = 50
