Answer:


\huge\boxed{x=23}

Explanation:

In order to find the value of x that makes m || n, we need to note something.

When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, their angle measures will be the same.

Therefore, in order for m and n to be parallel, their two angles listed must be equivalent.

So, we can set these expression equal to each other and solve for x.


  • 7x - 11 = 4x + 58

  • 7x = 4x+ 69

  • 3x = 69

  • x = 23

Therefore, x=23.

Hope this helped!
