Answer:


\huge\boxed{x=25}

Explanation:

These two angles are supplementary. This means their angle measurements add up to 180°.

We know the measure of both angles, so we can add up the measurements and make them equal to 180.


(5x + 10) + (2x-5) = 180

We can now solve for x.


7x + 5 = 180\\\\7x = 175\\\\x=25

So
x=25.

Hope this helped!
