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).

Hey there!
-1 ¼ • 9
= - (4+1)/4 • 9
= -5/4 • 9
= -(5 × 9)/4
= <u>-</u><u> </u><u>4</u><u>5/4</u>
= <u>- 11.25</u>
Hope it helps ya!
