Given the measures of the angles:
6(x + 1) degrees and 48 degrees.
The two angles atre supplementary angles.
Let's solve for x.
Supplementary angles are angles that sum up to 180 degrees.
To solve for x, add both angles and equate to 180.
6(x + 1) + 48 = 180
Apply distributive property:
6(x) + 6(1) + 48 = 180
6x + 6 + 48 = 180
6x + 54 = 180
Subtract 54 from both sides:
6x + 54 - 54 = 180 - 54
6x = 126
Divide both sides by 6:
