Find The Value Of Xplease Helppppp class=

Sagot :

Answer:

  x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The two marked angles form a linear pair, so are supplementary. Their sum is 180°.

  (3x +136)° +(5x +20)° = 180°

  8x +156 = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by °, collect terms

  8x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 156

  x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 8

Additional comment

We suspect the intended answer for the second question is A 25° and 65°. These are possible measures for the acute angles in a right triangle, which must total 90°. No angle will be more than 90° (eliminates C and D), and the two smallest angles must total 90° (eliminates B).
