Question

refer to the figure. progress: 0/2 part 1 of 2 (a) write an equation to find x. equation:

Explanation:

Step1: Use vertical - angles property

Vertical angles are equal. So, we set up the equation based on the fact that the two given angles are vertical angles.
$5x + 68=92$

Step2: Solve for x

Subtract 68 from both sides of the equation: $5x=92 - 68$. Then $5x = 24$. Divide both sides by 5: $x=\frac{24}{5}=4.8$.

Answer:

(a) equation: $5x + 68=92$
