Hey can anyone help pls thank you !

Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle vertically opposite (4x - 17) is also (4x - 17) , then
4x - 17 and 8x + 5 are same- side interior angles and sum to 180° , that is
4x - 17 + 8x + 5 = 180
12x - 12 = 180 ( add 12 to both sides )
12x = 192 ( divide both sides by 12 )
x = 16
Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram (attached along with answer) ,
∠ABY = 8x + 5
∠ZYQ = 4x - 17
∠ABY = ∠XYQ = 8x + 5 (∵ Corresponding angles are equal)
∠XYQ + ∠ZYQ = 180° (∵ Linear pair)
[tex]=> 8x + 5 + 4x - 17 = 180[/tex]
[tex]=> 12x - 12 = 180[/tex]
[tex]=> 12x = 180 + 12 = 192[/tex]
[tex]=> x = \frac{168}{12} = 16[/tex]
