Since it is a given that the angles are vertical, then that means they have to be congruent or = to each other so we can now set up an equation:
3x+7=x+53
Now we need to get the variable alone on one side so subtract 7 from the left (remember what you do, you must do to both sides)
3x=46
Now we can divide by three to get x alone
x=15.333333333 or rounded to 15.33

Answer:
2x-y= -8
2x+y= 7
Step-by-step explanation: hopes this helps :)
Answer:
65
Step-by-step explanation:
They are vertical angles; so angles are congruent
*<em>Vertical angles are always congruent*</em>
<em>Congruent means equal or same.</em>
1) Since they are congruent, you form an equation.
<h2>
145 = 2x + 15</h2>
2) Solve by subtracting 15 from both sides.
<h2>
145 = 2x + 15</h2><h2>
- 15 -15</h2><h2>
----------------------</h2><h2>
130 = 2x</h2>
3) Solve by dividing 2 from both sides
<h2>
130/2 = 2x/2</h2>
4) Simplify
x = 65
