Since the angles are supplementary, their sum is 180 degrees.
So, we have:
(6x + 48) + 60 = 180
Combine like terms:
6x + 108 = 180
Subtract 108 from both sides:
6x = 72
Divide both sides by 6:
x = 12
Therefore, the value of x is 12.
The angles below are supplementary. What is the value of x? (1 point)
A pair of supplementary angles is shown. One angle measures 6x plus 48 degrees, and the other angle measures 60 degrees.
