Question

Anyone available to help me with this?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The angles shown are alternate exterior angles, so they are congruent. Therefore, to find x, you can simply set up an equation like so:

`6(x+7)=24(x-8)\\6x+42=24x-192\\-18x=-234\\x=13`

Now, we plug in x=13 to the remaining equations:

`6(13+7)\\=6(20)\\=120`

(top)

`24(13-8)\\=24(5)\\=120`
