Answer:

Because BE is an angle bisector, that means it cuts angle ABC perfectly in half.

That means that m<ABE must be equal to m<EBC.

Set the two expressions equal to eachother and solve for X.

2x+20=4x-6

26=2x

13=x

Answer:

13 is the value of x.

Explanation:

Since angles ABE and EBC have equal measurement because ABC was bisected by BE, then we have the following equation:

2x+20=4x-6.

Subtract 2x on both sides:

20=2x-6

Add 6 on both sides:

26=2x

Divide both sides by 2:

26/2=x

Simplify:

13=x

So x=13.
