Question

Given that A, O & B lie on a straight line segment, evaluate x.

The diagram is not drawn to scale.

Answer 1

Answer: x=10

Step-by-step explanation: A straight line is equal to 180 degrees, meaning that the sum of all angles is supplementary to 180 degrees. This can be written as 3x+88+x+36+2x-4=180. Adding like terms, it is simplified to 6x+120=180. Subtract 120 on both sides getting you 6x=60. Then divide; x=10
