So a property of parallelograms is that consecutive angles are supplementary, or add up to 180. Using this information, this is our equation:
30+5x+15+10x=180

Firstly, combine like terms:
15x+45=180

Next, subtract 45 on both sides of the equation:
15x=135

Lastly, divide both sides by 15 and your answer is x = 9, or D.
