Answer:

x=30

Explanation:

Hi there!

For A to be parallel to B, 5x would be equal to 3x+60. (If they were parallel, these two angles would be alternate exterior angles, which are equal.)


5x=3x+60

Subtract 3x from both sides


5x-3x=3x+60-3x\\2x=60

Divide both sides by 2


x=30

I hope this helps!
