The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \( x \) in the given quadrilateral with angles \( (6x)^\circ \), \( 5(x+2)^\circ \), \( (7x-20)^\circ \), and \( 2(2x + 9)^\circ \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equation for the sum of angles in a quadrilateral. The sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is always \( 360^\circ \). Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ (6x) + 5(x + 2) + (7x - 20) + 2(2x + 9) = 360 \] ### Step 2: Expand and simplify the equation. Now, we will expand the terms: \[ 6x + 5x + 10 + 7x - 20 + 4x + 18 = 360 \] Combine like terms: \[ (6x + 5x + 7x + 4x) + (10 - 20 + 18) = 360 \] This simplifies to: \[ 22x + 8 = 360 \] ### Step 3: Isolate \( x \). Next, we will isolate \( x \) by subtracting 8 from both sides: \[ 22x = 360 - 8 \] \[ 22x = 352 \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( x \). Now, divide both sides by 22: \[ x = \frac{352}{22} \] \[ x = 16 \] ### Conclusion: Thus, the value of \( x \) is \( 16 \). ---
