Answer: x=17

Explanation:

1.Identify relationship

Since both the angles are on the inside of both parallel lines and on the same side of the transversal you know that you have a same side interior relationship that makes them supplementary

2. set up equation

because they are supplementary you know that they are equal to 180 which gives the equation: 3x+6+123=180

3. solve the equation

3x+6+123=180

3x+129=180 | combine like terms

3x=51 | subtract 123 from both sides

x=17 | divide by 3 on both sides
