Explanation:


\textsf{For this problem, we are asked to create an equation, and to find the measures of each angle.}


\textsf{Angle 1 and Angle 2 form a Linear Pair.}


\large\underline{\textsf{What is a Linear Pair?}}


\textsf{A Linear Pair is 2 Adjacent angles that form a 180 Degree angle.}


\textsf{This means that Angle 1 and Angle 2 add up to 180}^(\circ).


\large\underline{\textsf{Creating an Equation:}}


\textsf{We are given 2 expressions for Angles 1 and 2. Add them together to equal 180}^(\circ).


\large\boxed{\mathtt{5x+x-18=180^(\circ)}}


\large\underline{\textsf{Solving the Equation:}}


\textsf{Solve x by isolating the variable. Let's first add 18 to both sides of the equation.}


\mathtt{5x+x=198^(\circ)}


\textsf{Because 5x and x are like terms, we can combine them.}


\mathtt{6x=198}


\textsf{Now, divide each side of the equation by 6 to find x.}


\mathtt{(6x)/(6)=(198)/(6) }


\large\boxed{\mathtt{x=33^(\circ)}}


\large\underline{\textsf{Finding the Measures:}}


\textsf{Because we know the value x, we can substitute the known value of x into the expressions given.}


\boxed{\mathtt{\angle 1 =5(33)=165^(\circ)}}


\boxed{\mathtt{\angle 2=33-18=15^(\circ)}}
