Can someone please help me with this! Its been a while since I've had a problem like this and I need a refresher

Answer 1

• The value of x is 40.

Explanation:

We know that:

• 142 = 3x + 22 (Vertically opposite angles)

Work:

• 142 = 3x + 22
• => 142 - 22 = 3x + 22 - 22
• => 120 = 3x
• => x = 40

Hence, the value of x is 40.

Hoped this helped.
