The answer is x=7

4x-13=x+8
+13. +13


4x=x+21
-x. -x

3x=21

Then divide both numbers by three and the answer is x=7

Hope this helps:)

Answer:


x=7

Explanation:

Corresponding angles in parallel lines are equal. (m// n)

Therefore,


4x-13 =x+8\\4x-x=13+8\\3x=21\\(3x)/(3) =(21)/(3) \\x=7

Hope this helps you.

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)
