Answer:

8) x=9

10) 23 degrees

Explanation:

8) vertical angles are congruent to each other so we can set the expressions as such and solve:

7x + 3 = 10x - 24

3 = 3x - 24

27 = 3x

9 = x

10) since the angles are complementary they equal 90 degrees, so we can set the expression like this and solve for x:

12x + 7 + 6x - 7 = 90

18x + 7 - 7 = 90

18x = 90

x = 5

now we plug it back into the expression equivalent to the measure of angle O:

6(5) -7

30 - 7

23 degrees
