Answer:

x = 2

Explanation:

m<XYZ = 70 and

m<XYZ = m<XYW + m<WYZ

So we can conclude 50 + 3x + 14 = 70 add like terms

64 + 3x = 70 subtract 64 from both sides

3x = 6 divide both sides by 3

x = 2

Since Angle XYZ equals 70 degrees, thus the sum of the Angle XYW and Angle WYZ equal 70 degrees

Angle XYW + Ange WYZ = 70

50 + (3x + 14) = 70

3x + 14 = 20

3x = 6

x = 2

Hope that helps!
