Question

Solve for x.

hint: use your knowledge of parallel lines. what do you know about these angles? are they congruent or supplementary?

Answer 1

x = 11

Explanation:

The given angles are supplementary which means their sum is 180

8x - 6 + 98 = 180 add like terms

8x + 92 = 180 subtract 92 from both sides

8x = 88 divide both sides by 8

x = 11
