From the diagram it can be wrriten as,


2x+5+3x+10=90

Simplify the expression and find the value of x.


\begin{gathered} 5x+15=90 \\ 5x=90-15 \\ x=15 \end{gathered}

Put 15 for x in the expression 2x+5 gives,


(2*15)+5=35^0

Put 15 for x in the expression 3x+10 implies,


(3*15)+10=55

Therefore,


\begin{gathered} x=15^0 \\ 2x+5=35 \\ 3x+10=55 \end{gathered}
