Answer:

x=15°

Explanation:

Given that Ray AB is the angle bisector of
$\angle CAD$ , then
$\angle CAB=\angle BAD$ and given that
$\angle CAB=5x-17, \angle BAD=3x+13$ , we equate the two angles to solve for x:

$\angle CAB=5x-17= \angle BAD=3x+13\\\\5x-17=3x+13\\\\2x=30\\\\x=15 \textdegree$

From the equation above, x=15°

Ray AB bisects Angle CAD. Use that information to solve for x.
