For this case we have that by definition, the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
Then, according to the figure we have:
[tex][180- (6x + 1)] + 79+ (2x + 10) = 180[/tex]
We operate parentheses:
[tex]180-6x-1 + 79 + 2x + 10 = 180[/tex]
We add similar terms:
[tex]-4x + 268 = 180\\-4x = 180-268\\-4x = -88\\x = \frac {-88} {- 4}\\x = 22[/tex]
Thus, x has a value of 22 degrees.
Answer:
Option D
