Question

Solve for x, worth 10 points

Answer 1

Answer: x=22

Explanation:

Since the angles are corresponding angles, use x+14=5x-74. You get 36=36 meaning it is right when you substitute the value for x.

x+14=5x-74

-x on both sides

14=4x-74

+74 on both sides

88=4x

Divide both sides by 4

x=22
