Answer:

x = 13

Explanation:

The sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360°, so you have ...

75° + 6x° + 90° +9x° = 360°

15x +165 = 360 . . . . . collect terms, divide by °

x + 11 = 24 . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

x = 13 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 11

_____

Check

6x° = 78°

9x° = 117°

75° + 78° +90° +117° = 360° . . . . as required.
