Answer:

x = 50

Explanation:

The two angles are vertical angles, so they are congruent. Congruent angles have equal measures. Set the angle measures equal to each other, and solve the equation for x.

2(x + 10) = 3x - 30

Distribute on the left side.

2x + 20 = 3x - 30

Subtract 2x from both sides.

20 = x - 30

Add 30 to both sides.

50 = x

x = 50
