Answer 1

`x=12`

Explanation:

we know that

A linear pair is two angles that are adjacent and form a line. The angle measure of a line is 180 degrees

In this problem we have that

`(10x-20)^o+(6x+8)^o=180^o` --- by supplementary angles (form a linear pair)

solve for x

`(16x-12)=180`

`16x=180+12`

`16x=192`

`x=12`
