Answer:

x = 34

Explanation:

This is a straight line so the sum of angles must be 180°

4x + 20 + x - 10 = 180 add like terms

5x + 10 = 180 subtract 10 from both sides

5x = 170 divide both sides by 5

x = 34

To calculate each angle we replace x with the value we found

4x + 20 ➡ 4×34 + 20 = 156

x - 10 ➡ 34 - 10 = 24
