The sum of the measure of angle M and angle L is 116 degrees.

Question

The measure of angle M is 50 degrees
The measure of angle L is (7x-4) degrees
What is the value of x?
A. 10
B. 12
C. 15
D. 20

Answer 1

The sum of the measure of angle M and angle L is given as 116 degrees:
M + L = 116

The measure of angle M is given as 50 degrees:
M = 50

The measure of angle L is given as (7x-4) degrees:
L = 7x - 4

Substituting the given values into the equation M + L = 116:
50 + (7x - 4) = 116

Combining like terms:
7x + 50 - 4 = 116

7x + 46 = 116

Subtracting 46 from both sides of the equation:
7x = 70

Dividing both sides by 7:
x = 10

Therefore, the value of x is 10.
A. 10
