Question

Given m||n, find the value of x.
t
(7x-1)
(8x-14)

Answer 1

x = 13

Explanation:

With the corresponding angles theorem, the two angles equal each other so:

7x - 1 = 8x - 14

subtract 8x from both sides

-x -1 = -14

add 1 to both sides

-x = -13

divide with "-" to make x positive cause u want x not -x

x = 13

Answer 2

Explanation:

7x-1=8x-14

-1+14=8x-7x

13=x
