Answer:


x=68

Explanation:

The sum of the interior angles in a polygon with n sides is 180(n-2), therefore, since the polygon has 5 sides, the sum of its interior angles is 180(5-2)=180(3)=540°.


x^\circ+(2x+7)^\circ+(x-8)^\circ+(3x-11)^\circ+(x+8)^\circ=540^\circ\\\\x+2x+7+x-8+3x-11+x+8=540\\\\8x-4=540\\\\8x=544\\\\x=68

Therefore,
x=68
