Answer:

x = 15

Explanation:

Supplementary = 180 °

Add the numbers


(2x + 20) + 130 = 180


2x + 150 = 180

Subtract 150 from both sides of the equation


2x+150- 150 =180 - 150

Simplify


2x = 30

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term


(2x)/(2) =(30)/(2)

Simplify/Solution =


x=15

Hence, x = 15.
