Answer 1

`x=61`

Explanation:

We can find the angle directly above the
`2x+8`.

We know that because they both lie on a straight line, the other angle is
`180-(2x+8)=172-2x`.

Aha! We have a path to the solution!

`172-2x=x-11` because of the parallel line angle theorem(I forget what it's called).

We then add
`2x` and
`11` to both sides to get
`183=3x`.

Lastly, we divide by
`3` to get
`61=x`.

So,
`\boxed{x=61}` and we're done!
