Answer:

37 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

As XW and YZ are parallel lines, you can use the co-interior angle rule to solve for x.

This is when you see a C-shape between parallel lines. The rule states that the sum of these two co-interior angles is 180 degrees.

Therefore,

⇒ [tex]3x - 5 + 2x = 180[/tex]

⇒ [tex]5x - 5 = 180[/tex]   [collect like terms of x]

⇒ [tex]5x = 185[/tex]   [add 5 to both sides]

⇒ [tex]x = 37[/tex]   [divide both sides by 5]

Hope this helps! :D
