I first subtracted 88 from 180 because we know that 180 is the total degree of the three angles in a trangle. I got 92, then divided that by 2 since there are two angles that are unknown. I got 46, which I can then use to form the equation (9x+1)=46. I subtracted 1 from both sides to get rid of the 1 (since we're finding what x equals to), I then got 9x=45. After that, I divided 9 from both sides and got the answer x=5.
