i got x=25.5
because it looks like those added together equals 180 degrees so set that up as an equation than combined like terms and solve it algebraically

The two angles given are supplementary angles so when added together need to equal 180 degrees.

2x-1 + 4x+28 = 180

Simplify:

6x +27 = 180

Subtract 27 from both sides:

6x = 153

Divide both sides by 6:

x = 25.5
