Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

∠1 + ∠2 = 180   {supplementary}

3x  - 17  + 5x + 21 = 180    

Add the like terms

8x  + 4 = 180

8x = 180 - 4

8x = 176

x = 176/8

x = 22

Answer:

x = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add to 180

<1+ <2 =180

(3x - 17) + (5x + 21) = 180

Combine like terms

8x +4 = 180

Subtract 4 from each side

8x +4-4 = 180-4

8x = 176

Divide each side by 8

8x/8 = 176/8

x = 22
