Question

1. (part 3 of 3) using the equation from question 6, solve for x.

x = answer

Explanation:

Step1: Set up the equation

Assuming the two angles are equal (since no other information about their relationship is given and if they are vertical - angles which are equal), we have $3x - 5=65$.

Step2: Add 5 to both sides

$3x-5 + 5=65 + 5$, which simplifies to $3x=70$.

Step3: Divide both sides by 3

$x=\frac{70}{3}$.

Answer:

$x = \frac{70}{3}$
