Answer:

Hey!

Since we know that both expressions lay on a straight line, we know that when both lines add up it should be 180°

We can write the expression as (7x - 1) + (6x - 1) = 180

Simplify

→ (7x + −1) + (6x + −1) = 180

Combine Like Terms

→ (7x + 6x) + (-1 + -1) = 180 → 13 + -2 = 180

Add 2 To Both Sides

→ 13x - 2 + 2 = 180 + 2 → 13x = 182

Divide 13 To Both Sides

13x/13 = 182/13 → x = 14

Hence, the value of x is 14!
