What is the value of "X"?
MrMuchimi

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles equal 180 degrees to this is what I did:

8x + 2 + 70 + 60 = 180

8x + 2 + 130 = 180

8x + 132 = 180

subtract 132 from each side

8x = 48

now divide each side by 8 to isolate the x

x = 6.

ioda
\frac{x}{2.4} = \frac{3}{8}

For proportions and to find x we have to cross multiply
8 × (x) = 3 × 2.4

8x = 7.2
Divide by 8 to isolate x

\frac{8x}{8} =  \frac{7.2}{8}
8 and 8 cancels out

x = 0.9
