x=20 degrees

First we can recall that, supplementary angles sum up to 180. So, we can think of an equation…

(2x+15) + (6x+5)=180

Combine like terms,

(8x+20)=180

Subtract 20 degrees from both sides

8x=180

Divide by 8

x=20

If you plug 20 into both expressions and add them up, you will see that it checks out…

I hope this helped
