Question

What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box. x =

Answer 1

in such cases where 2 line intersect each other, opposite angels are equal

so

2x+2 = 3x - 52

now subtracting 2 from both side

2x +2 -2 = 3x - 52 - 2

2x = 3x - 54

subtracting 3x from both side

2x -3x = 3x -54 - 3x

-x = -54

drividing by -1 both side

-x/-1 = -54/-1

x = 54
