Given: angle COB=3x+16 and angle AOD=5x-42
Prove: x=29

Answer:
if your asking how to get 29 then here is how
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate
3x+16=5x−42
Move the variable to the left side
3x+16−5x=−42
Subtract the terms
−2x+16=−42
Move the constant to the right side
−2x=−42−16
Subtract the terms
−2x=−58
Divide both sides
2x divided by -2
-58 divided by 2
Solution
x=29
