Question

solve for x.
(3x + 5)
65
x = 10
x = 20
x = 40
x = 90

Explanation:

Step1: Identify vertical angles

Vertical angles are equal, so \(3x + 5 = 65\).

Step2: Solve for x

Subtract 5 from both sides: \(3x = 65 - 5 = 60\).
Divide by 3: \(x = \frac{60}{3} = 20\).

Answer:

x = 20 (corresponding to the option "x = 20")
