Question

Solve for x,
x = 10
x = 15
x = 8
x = 12

Answer 1

x = 12.

Explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles is 180, so:

8x - 17 + 3x + 2 + 63 = 180

11x -15 + 63 = 180

11x = 180 + 15 - 63

11x = 132

x = 132/11 = 12

Answer 2

`~~~~~~(8x-17)+(3x+2)+63 = 180\\\\\implies 11x +48=180\\\\\implies 11x = 180-48\\\\\implies 11x = 132\\\\\implies x= (132)/(11)\\\\\implies x= 12`
