Answer:
9.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the correct question with picture attached: Lines DE and AB intersect at point C
What is the value of x?
(2x+2) °
(16x+3)°
Now, finding the value of x.
∠ACE+∠ECB= 180° (∵ They form a straight line angle)
∴ [tex](2x+2)+(16x+3)= 180[/tex]
Opeing the parethesis.
⇒ [tex]2x+2+16x+3= 180[/tex]
⇒ [tex]18x+5= 180[/tex]
subtracting 5 on both side.
⇒ [tex]18x= 175[/tex]
cross multiplying the number
⇒x= [tex]\frac{175}{18}[/tex]
∴x= 9.7
