Answer:68°Step-by-step explanation:The angles are equal to each other.  Set them equal and solve for x5x + 18 = 8x - 12  Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation18 = 3x - 12  Add 12 to both sides of the equation30 = 3x  Divide both sides by 310 = xNow that you have found x plug is back into  5x + 185(10) + 1850 + 18 = 68

Answer:∠ FLJ = 68°Step-by-step explanation:∠ EKG and ∠ FLJ are alternate exterior angles and are congruent , then8x - 12 = 5x + 18 ( subtract 5x from both sides )3x - 12 = 18 ( add 12 to both sides )3x = 30 ( divide both sides by 3 )x = 10Then∠ FLJ = 5x + 18 = 5(10) + 18 = 50 + 18 = 68°
