Question

2. Solve for x.
(6x + 4)º
44°

Answer 1

Ok so we know the total will be 180 degrees. We subtract 44 from 180 which is 136. Then set up an equation
6x + 4 = 136
Subtract 4 from both sides so
6x = 132
Divide both sides by 6
X=12

Answer 2

$~~~~~(6x+4) +44 = 90\\\\\implies 6 x+ 48=90\\\\\implies 6x = 90-48\\\\\implies 6x = 42\\\\\implies x= \dfrac{42}6\\\\\implies x = 7$
