Let's start with the x coordinates.

-8 is on the left, and -4 to the right, so that will help organize this.

the line goes from -8,-9 to -4,-8. it moved 4 over the x axis and rose 1 over the y axis.

rise/run so 1/4 is the slope.

y=(1/4)x - 7

The question is an illustration of angles on a straight line

The value of x is 25.4

<h3>How to determine the value of x</h3>

In the figure, angles 1 and 2 are angles on a straight line

Where:

Angle 1 = 4x - 8
Angle 2 = 3x + 10

So, we have:

$4x - 8 + 3x + 10=180$

Collect like terms

$4x + 3x =180 - 10 + 8$

$7x =178$

Divide through by 7

$x =25.4$

Hence, the value of x is 25.4
