Answer:

  x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.

  (2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180

  4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)

  x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and  eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.

What is the value of x
Crank

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the diagram,

Line DT is parallel to line line BM, therefore, triangle DHT is similar to triangle BHM. This means that

DH/DB = TH/MH

DH = 15 + 6 = 21

TH = 9 + x

Therefore

(9 + x)/21 = 9/6

Cross multiplying, it becomes

6(9 + x) = 21 × 9 = 189

54 + 6x = 189

Subtracting 54 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

6x + 54 - 54 = 189 - 54

6x = 135

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 6, it becomes

6x/6 = 135/6

x = 22.5
