Solve for x.
18x - 12
16x +8
x = [?]

x = 10;

Both the angles are congruent, therefore;

8x - 12 = 6x + 8

=> Now subtract 6x from each side of "="

2x - 12 = 8

=> Add 12 to each side;

2x = 20

=> Lastly divide each side by 2;

x = 10

Hope this helps!

10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image provided, it shows that both 8x - 12 would equal 6x + 8 because their angles are the same due to their placement. With that it turns into 8x - 12 = 6x + 8. Then you can simplify to 2x = 20 by adding 12 to both sides, and subtracting 6x. Then 20 divided by 2 to get x by itself equaling 10.

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
