Answer: x = 23

Explanation:

The sum of interior angles in a triangles is equal to 180°, therefore:

(2x - 1) + 110 + 25 = 180

1. Get rid of parentheses.

2x - 1 + 110 + 25 = 180

2. Add the number up in the left side.

2x + 134 = 180

3. Subtract 134 from both sides.

2x = 46

4. Divide by 2 from both sides.

x = 23
