Question

What is the value of x?

Answer 1

x = 70

Explanation:

The two angles are same side interior angles.

Same side interior angles add to 180 when we have parallel lines

45+ (2x-5) = 180

Combine like terms

40+2x= 180

Subtract 40 from each side

40-40+2x= 180-40

2x =140

Divide by 2

2x/2 =140/2

x = 70
