According to the given graph, the given angles are alternate interior angles that are always equivalent.

Having said that, we can express the following equation.-


7x-1=125

Solving for x, we have


\begin{gathered} 7x=125+1 \\ 7x=126 \\ (7x)/(7)=(126)/(7) \\ x=18 \end{gathered}

Therefore, x is equal to 18.
