Answer:

x = 20

Explanation:

Assuming that both lines are straight lines, we can make opposite sides equal. So... 3x+50 = 6x-10 --> 3x+60=6x --> 60=3x --> x=20

We have a pair of vertical angles here. So they would equal each other.
3x+50=6x-10
Subtract 3x to 6x:
50=3x-10
Add 10 to 50:
60=3x
Divide 3 to both sides:
x=30
