Question

I need to show the work. Please help

Answer 1

x=23

Explanation:

The two angles are equal so you can set 8x-77 and 3x+38 equal to each other and write it as:

8x-77=3x+38

Then you get like terms on the same sides by subtracting 3x from both sides and getting:

5x-77=38

Then you add 77 to both sides and get:

5x=115

Then you divide both sides by 5 and get x=23
