The equation that will solve for x is:
(2x + 8)° + 112° =
Simplifying the equation, we have:
2x + 8 + 112 =
Combining like terms, we have:
2x + 120 =
To solve for x, we subtract 120 from both sides of the equation:
2x = 120 -
Simplifying further, we have:
2x =
Finally, to solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 2:
x = /2

An illustration shows a slanting line intersecting with two lines that appear parallel. The angles that the slanting line forms with the top line are labeled from the top left in a clockwise direction as 1, 2, 4, and 3. The angles that the slanting line forms with the bottom line are labeled from the top left in a clockwise direction as 5, 6, 8, and 7.
