What is the measure of ZXZY?

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line m and line n are parallel:

x + 72 = 3x + 12 export like terms to the same side of equation with opposite indicator (- changes to + and + changes to -)

72 - 12 = 3x - x add/subtract like terms

60 = 2x divide both sides by 2

30 = x

the simplified form is

step-by-step explanation:

we want to simplify the expression,

let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,

we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,

we factor to obtain,

we cancel the common factors to get,

we simplify to get,

the correct answer is b
