ANSWER:


\begin{gathered} 2x+3x-6=78 \\ x=16.8 \end{gathered}

Explanation:

According to the graph, the sum of these two angles is equal to 78°, therefore, the equation would be:


2x+3x-6=78

If we solve the value of x it would be:


\begin{gathered} 5x=78+6 \\ x=(84)/(5) \\ x=16.8 \end{gathered}
