Answer:

x = 18

Explanation:

When two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then same-side exterior angles are supplementary, meaning their angle measures add up 180 degrees. Applying this knowledge here, one can state that;

( 6x - 3 ) + 75 = 180

Simplify,

6x - 3 + 75 = 180

6x + 72 = 180

Inverse operations,

6x + 72 = 180

-72 -72

6x = 108

/6 /6

x = 18
