Answer:

x=6

Explanation:

these parallel lines are cut by a transversal line, forming different angles.

10x is a corresponding angle to 6+9x, so we can set them equal to each other,

10x = 6 + 9x

- 9x -9x (we want to isolate the variable(x), so we group the x's)

[1] x = 6

so, we know that x = 6

(if you want to check:

10x = 6 + 9x

60 = 6 + 54 is a true statement, confirming that x=6)

hope this helps! feel free to ask clarifying questions!
