Answer:

x = 5

Explanation:

Well all you have to do is use this formula

75 + 36x -3 = 180

How did I figure that out?? Well I know that the angle next to 75 is the same as 36x-3 becuase that are alternate interior angles and 75 and 36x-3 would be a linear pair meaning that the product of the them would be 180, Thus making the formula

Now all you have to do is combine like terms:

75 -3 = 72

72 + 36x = 180

subtract 72 from both sides

72 -72 = 0

180- 72 = 108

36x = 108

divide both sides by 36

X= 5
