Answer:

7

Explanation:

We know that alternate angles ( Z angles) are equal

So, the angle that is adjacent to (13x + 2) = (12x+3)

First, calculate the measure of the angle adjacent to (13x+2)

We know that the angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

Therefore, the angle adjacent to (13x+2) = 180-(13x+2)

Simplify this to: 178-13x

So, now we have an equation

178 - 13x = 12x + 3

Rearrange to find the value of x

25x = 175

x = 7

Hope this helps.
