Answer:
<em>B. 30 degrees</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the diagram attached
From the diagram:
Interior angles are m<3 and m<2
Exterior angle = <4
using the rule that says that the sum of interior angles is equal to the exterior angle we have:
m<2+m<3 = m<4
(4/3)x°+20 = 2x°
multiply through by 3:
4x° + 60 = 6x°
4x°-6x° = -60
-2x° = -60
x°= -60/-2
<em>x° = 30°</em>
Hence the value of x is 30 degrees
