Answer:

B = 79°

Explanation:

The sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.

(14x -11)° +(8x +7)° +(5x +18)° +(10x +13)° = 360°

37x +27 = 360 . . . . . . divide by °, collect terms

37x = 333 . . . . . . . . subtract 27

x = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 37

The measure of angle B is ...

B = (8x +7)° = ((8)(9) +7)°

B = 79°

_____

Additional comment

The other angles are ...

A = 115°, C = 63°, D = 103°
