question 21
1 pts
line a cuts across lines b and c.
for what value of x will lines b and c be parallel?
question 22
1 pts

Explanation:

Step1: Identify angle - relationship

When lines b and c are parallel, the corresponding angles are equal. So, \(3x=(2x + 17)\).

Step2: Solve the equation

Subtract \(2x\) from both sides of the equation \(3x=2x + 17\). We get \(3x-2x=2x + 17-2x\), which simplifies to \(x = 17\).
