Explanation:

Because it is the "Correct Answer"

Answer 2

`x=13`

Explanation:

The angle on a straight line is always 180 degrees.

Thus,

`(12x-26)+50=180`

Remove the brackets:

`12x-26+50=180`

`12x+24=180`

Subtract 24 from both sides:

`12x+24-24=180-24`

`12x=156`

Divide both sides by 12:

`(12x)/(12)=(156)/(12)\\`

`x=13`
