Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If angles C and B have equal degrees then the side AC is also equal to side AB in length and you can make their equations equal as well and solve for X.
2x+16=7x+6
get X's all on same side and the constants all on the other side,
-2x +2x+16=7x+6+-2x
The X's on the left cancel out.
16=5x+6
-6+16=5x+6+-6
add -6 to each side. On the right the 6 is now cancelled out.
10=5X
divide each side by 5 to cancel out the 5
10/5= 5X/5
2=X . ANSWER
