The supplement of < 72 has the same measure as < (4x + 8). Therefore, < (4x + 8) must equal 108°. We can establish the following equality statement to solve for x:
< (4x + 8) + < 72° = 180°
Combine like terms:
4x + 80 = 180°
Subtract 80 from both sides:
4x + 80° - 80° = 180° - 80°
4x = 100
Divide both sides by 4 to solve for x:
4x/4 = 100/4
x = 25
To verify whether the value of x is correct, substitute its value into the equality statement:
< (4x + 8)° + < 72° = 180°
< [4(25) + 8]° + < 72° = 180°
< (100 + 8)° + < 72° = 180°
< 108° + < 72° = 180°
180° = 180° (True statement. Therefore, the correct answer is x = 25).

Answer: 5x + 2y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Change 5x+2y=12 to slope intercept: 2y = 12 - 5x, y = -5x/2 + 6
A parallel line has the same slope, so the line we try to find is y = -5x/2 + b.
Substitute (-2, 4) in and get 4=5+b, so b = -1.
Therefore the answer is y = -5x/2 - 1, or if you want it in the original form it would be 2y = -5x - 2 ---> 5x+2y = -2.
