Answer:


\Huge\boxed{x=8}

Explanation:

Hello There!

Remember the sum of all of the angles in a triangle is 180

so we can use this equation to solve for x

180 = 50 + 60 + 8x + 6

now we solve for x

step 1 combine like terms

50 + 60 + 6 = 116

now we have

180=8x+116

step 2 subtract 116 from each side

116 - 116 cancels out

180 - 116 = 64

now we have

8x = 64

step 3 divide each side by 8

8x/8=x

64/8=8

we're left with x = 8
