Answer:

We know that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. Therefore, we can write:

m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180

Substitute the given values:

5x+6 + 7x-18 + m∠C = 180

Combine like terms:

12x-12 + m∠C = 180

Add 12 to both sides:

12x + m∠C = 192

Subtract 12x from both sides:

m∠C = 192 - 12x

Therefore, m∠C is equal to 192 minus 12 times x.
