Given m|n, find the value of x.

(x-17)
(5x-1)

please help me

 33

Explanation:

The information that m || n is not needed or used, so I'm not sure why your teacher put that in there.

The angles shown are a linear pair. They are adjacent and they are supplementary. They form a straight angle.

Supplementary angles add to 180.

(x-17)+(5x-1) = 180

x-17+5x-1 = 180

(x+5x)+(-17-1) = 180

6x-18 = 180

6x = 180+18

6x = 198

x = 198/6

x = 33

Extra info:

if x = 33, then,

x-17 = 33-17 = 165x-1 = 5*33-1 = 165-1 = 164

Adding the angles gives 16+164 = 180 which helps confirm our answer.

Hey, can you post the problem?

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
