Question

solve for x:

Explanation:

Step1: Identify angle - relationship

Assume the two angles are corresponding angles (since parallel - like markings are shown). Corresponding angles are equal. So, we set up the equation $11x - 2=75$.

Step2: Solve the equation for x

Add 2 to both sides of the equation: $11x-2 + 2=75 + 2$, which simplifies to $11x=77$.

Step3: Isolate x

Divide both sides of the equation $11x = 77$ by 11: $\frac{11x}{11}=\frac{77}{11}$, so $x = 7$.

Answer:

B. $x = 7$
