Answer:

x = 16 and z = 84

Explanation:

The 2 given angles are vertical and congruent, hence

7x - 16 = 6x ( subtract 6x from both sides )

x - 16 = 0 ( add 16 to both sides )

x = 16

Hence 6x = 6 × 16 = 96°

z and 6x form a straight angle and are supplementary, hence

z + 6x = 180

z + 96 = 180 ( subtract 96 from both sides )

z = 84
