Question

What is the value of x?



Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

Since the two angles are across from each other that tells us that they are equal in length, so we want to set them equal to each other

3x+50=6x-10, Now we want to solve it like a normal equation, get x by itself

First add 10 to each side

3x+50+10=6x-10+10

3x+60=6x

Now we want to subtract 3x from each side

3x-3x+60=6x-3x

60=3x

Now divide both sides by 3

60/3=3x/3

20=x

x=20

Hope this helps ;)
