Answer: z = 107; x = 5

Explanation:

z = 107 They are vertically opposite angles, which they are equal.

z + (6x + 43) = 180

1. Plug in 107 for z.

107 + (6x + 43) = 180

2. Get rid of parentheses.

107 + 6x + 43 = 180

3. Sum up the number in the left sides.

6x + 150 = 180

4. Subtract 150 from both sides.

6x = 30

5. Divided 6 from both sides.

x = 5
