Answer:

x = 17

Explanation:

(6x + 24)° and (2x + 20)° are same side interior angles and sum to 180°

sum the 2 angles and equate to 180

6x + 24 + 2x + 20 = 180 ← collect like terms on left side

8x + 44 = 180 ( subtract 44 from both sides )

8x = 136 ( divide both sides by 8 )


(8)/(8) x =
(136)/(8) , that is

x = 17
