50°
25°
12x-3
Find the x

X=9

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to first understand that a triangle will always be 180°. Next, we want to look at both where 25° and 12x-3 are. If we look closely we can see that they are the vertical angles of the interior angles of the triangle. To solve this algebraically we have to basically add all the angles (including 12x-3) to solve for x.

Adding all the angles together would look like this: 25+50+12x-3. Next, add up all like terms to get 12x+72=180. You want to get x by itself by subtracting by 72 on both sides to get 12x=108. Isolate x by dividing by 12 on each side which results in x=9
