Question
solve for x. 6 16 3.3 donuts
Step1: Identify the angle relationship
Since lines \( OP \) and \( QR \) are parallel (as they are both horizontal and cut by transversal \( MN \)), the corresponding angles \( (2x + 55)^\circ \) and \( (7x + 25)^\circ \) are equal. So we set up the equation:
\( 2x + 55 = 7x + 25 \)
Step2: Solve for \( x \)
Subtract \( 2x \) from both sides:
\( 55 = 5x + 25 \)
Subtract 25 from both sides:
\( 30 = 5x \)
Divide both sides by 5:
\( x = \frac{30}{5} = 6 \)
