You distribute the 8 to the x and the 2 which leaves you with 8x + 16 = 48 then u subtract the 16 on both sides, subtract 16 - 16 (cancel out) then 48-16 which gives you 32, from there you should have 8x=32 then you divide 8x by 8 and 32 by 8 which leave the x by itself and you 32/8 is 4 so the final answer is x = 4 !!

Solution 1:
x+2=6
x=4
Solution 2:
8x+16=48
8x=32
x=4

Given: circle k(O), m LM = 164° m WK = 68°, m∠MLK = 65° Find: m∠LMW

Semenov [28]

Let P be a point outside the circle such that triangle LMP has legs coincident with chords MW and LK (i.e. M, W, and P are colinear, and L, K, and P are colinear). By the intersecting secants theorem,

$m\angle LPM=\dfrac{m\widehat{LM}-m\widehat{WK}}2\impliesm\angle LPM=48^\circ$
