Please help me solve x please

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle theorem states that the measure of each exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite and non-adjacent interior angles.

In the given problem, the exterior angle is < B, and the non-adjacent interior angles are < D and < C.

Given that:

< B = 12x + 8

< D = 8x + 8

< C = 20°

Set up the following formula to solve for x:

(8x + 8) + 20 = 12x + 8

Combine like terms:

8x + 28 = 12x + 8

Subtract 8 from both sides:

8x + 28 - 8 = 12x + 8 - 8

8x + 20 = 12x

Subtract 8x from both sides:

8x - 8x + 20 = 12x - 8x

20 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for x:

20/4 = 4x/4

5  = x

Therefore, x = 5.
