Answer:

x=12

Explanation:

The given angles are alternate interior angles, and assuming Lines l and m are parallel, then the given angles are congruent/equal.

We can use this information to set up an equation:

13x-21=5x+75

Add 21 to both sides

13x-21+21=5x+75+21

13x=5x+96

Subtract 5x from both sides

13x-5x=5x-5x+96

8x=96

Divide both sides by 8

(8x)/8=(96)/8

x=12
