Question

Please help me with this, I need the answer by tomorrow.

Answer 1

x=3

Explanation:

since 67 and 23x-2 are congruent angles, you can set them equal to each other and solve ~OR~ since 5x+98 and 23x-2 are supplementary angles you can add them and have that equal to 180.

First Option:

67 = 23x-2

-2 -2

65=23x

/23 /23

3=x

Second Option:

5x+98 + 23x-2 = 180

combine like terms

28x+96=180

-96 -96

28x=84

/28 /28

x=3

Answer 2

Explanation:

First thing first we will use the alternate exterior angles theorem,

Since 67 and 23x-2 are alternate exterior angles, they are equal

`67 = 23x - 2`

`69 = 23x`

`x = 3`
