Use the image to answer the question.

An illustration shows a slanting line intersecting with two lines that appear parallel. The angles that the slanting line forms with the top line are labeled from the top left in a clockwise direction as 1, 2, 4, and 3. The angles that the slanting line forms with the bottom line are labeled from the top left in a clockwise direction as 5, 6, 8, and 7.

m∠5=112° and m∠8=(2x+8)° . What equation will solve for x ?

(2 points)
x°+__°=__°

The equation that will solve for x is:

(2x+8)° + 112° = __°

i think the angle is supplementary but im not shure

You are correct. The angles 5 and 8 are supplementary because they add up to 180 degrees. So the equation to solve for x would be:

x° + (2x + 8)° = 112°

there are no parenthesis in the question and you still need to answer within the __'s

Apologies for the confusion. Since Angle 5 and Angle 8 are supplementary, we can write the equation as:

x° + (2x + 8)° = 180°

Therefore, the equation that will solve for x is:

x° + (2x + 8)° = 180°

i forgot the __ behind the x°

Apologies for the oversight. The equation that will solve for x, with the missing blanks, is:

x° + __° = __°

you still need to answer

I apologize for the misunderstanding. The equation that will solve for x is:

x° + 112° = 180°
