I am doing parallel lines cut by transversals and it looks like this if i cant answer this i fail 8th grade.

To determine the value of x in this scenario, we need to apply the properties of parallel lines cut by a transversal.
First, we find the pairs of corresponding angles. In this case, we have the following corresponding angles:
- The angle formed by the line 17x + 5 and the transversal
- The angle formed by the line ________ and the transversal, directly across from the first angle
Since the lines are parallel, corresponding angles are congruent.
To solve for x, we can set up an equation using the congruence of corresponding angles:
17x + 5 = ________
You will need to provide the measure or value of the angle formed by the line _______, as it may vary depending on the specific problem you are working on. Once you have that information, you can substitute it into the equation and solve for x.
Dang it its all messed up
Its a straight line going down and two across and then 17x+5 in between the middle of the two lines on the left

Ugh HELP
you don't give much to go on.
But you know that
alternate interior (exterior) angles are congruent
adjacent angles are supplementary
if that's not enough to get started, you will have to provide a little more info. That single 17x+5 is useless all by itself.
