Answer:

X=7

Explanation:

Both are equal angles( the little 2 arrows prove that) so we set up the equation like this

75=11x-2

We need to isolate x to solve for it so we add 2 to both side since it's the opposite of subtraction.

our equation will then look like this

77=11x

last but not least, we divide 11 to both sides since it's the opposite of multiplication which 11 and X are doing

the answer is 7
