Answer 1

To find the value of x, we can use the information given in the problem.

We know that the sum of the measures of angle M and angle L is 116°, so we can set up the equation:

M + L = 116

Substituting in the given values:

50 + (7x - 4) = 116

Simplifying the equation:

7x + 46 = 116

Subtracting 46 from both sides:

7x = 70

Dividing both sides by 7:

x = 10

Therefore, the value of x is 10.

Answer: None of the above.
