If I'm correct your equation is
3x+50=6x−10
Now we solve it
---------------
Subtract 6x from each side
3x+506x=6x−106x
−3x+50=10
--------------------
Subtract 50 from each side
−3x+50−50=−1050
-3x = -60
-----------------------
Divide each side by -3
-3x ÷ -3 = -60 ÷ -3
x = 20

the angles are congruent because they are vertical so we can set them equal to one another.

3x + 50 = 6x - 10
3x + 60 = 6x
60 = 3x
20 = x
