Answer:
<em> (1). x = 14 ; (2). 70°</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>(1).</em> m∠ACD = m∠A + m∠B
6x + 2 = (2x + 1) + (3x + 15)
6x - 5x = 14
<em>x = 14</em>
<em>(2).</em> m∠ABC = 180° - m∠CBD = 140°
<em>m∠A</em> = m∠C = 140° ÷ 2 = <em>70°</em>
The first set of parentheses is unnecessary, so just drop it.
The second set of parentheses has a negative sign to its left.
To simplify the second set of parentheses, change every sign inside the parentheses. Then combine like terms.

= - x - 2 - 4x - 3
= -x - 4x - 2 - 3
= -5x - 5

When dividing polynomial f(x) by linear polynomial x-a, the remainder is equal to f(a).
In your case a=5. Find f(a)=f(5):
