The sum of the measure of angle M and angle is 116, the measure of angle M. Is 50, the measure of angle is 7X −4. What is the value of x

1 answer

Given that the sum of angles M and N is 116, and the measure of angle M is 50, we can write the equation:

50 + (7x - 4) = 116

To solve for x, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation. First, let's simplify the left side by combining like terms:

7x + 50 - 4 = 116

7x + 46 = 116

Next, let's isolate the variable by subtracting 46 from both sides:

7x = 116 - 46

7x = 70

Finally, solve for x by dividing both sides by 7:

x = 70/7

x = 10

Therefore, the value of x is 10.
