Answer 1

Answer: x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles provided are on a straight line

A straight line is 180 degrees, so we can add the two angles to make 180 and solve for x

$10x-20+6x+8=180$

Simplify

$10x-20+6x+8=180\\10x+6x-20+8=180\\16x-12=180$

Add 12 on both sides

$16x-12=180\\16x-12+12=180+12\\16x=192$

Divide both sides by 16 to isolate x

$16x=192\\\frac{16x}{16} =\frac{192}{16} \\x=12$
