Solve for X showing every step. please help me

X = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply (x + 6) by 3.

3x + 18 - 5 = 16

Add 18 and -5

13. 3x + 13 = 16

Subtract 13 to both sides

3x = 3

Divide both sides by 3

x = 1

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the angles are vertical angles their measures are congruent so make them equal to each other:

3x -8 = 2x +1     subtract 2x from both sides

-2x       -2x

x -8 = 1            add 8 to both sides

 +8    +8

x = 9            

Hope this helps
