================================================

Explanation:

a || b means the two lines a and b are parallel

If a || b and b || c, then a || c by the transitive property. Think of it like chaining pieces together.

Since a || c, this means the alternate exterior angles |5x+15| and 100 are congruent, or the same measure.

Solve for x

|5x+15| = 100

5x+15 = 100 or 5x+15 = -100

5x = 100-15 or 5x = -100-15

5x = 85 or 5x = -115

x = 85/5 or x = -115/5

x = 17 or x = -23
