Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Line l and m are two parallel lines cut across by the transversal line, therefore, the angle measuring 53° and (8x - 9)° are interior angles on the same side. Interior angles on the same side are supplementary.

Therefore:

53° + (8x - 9)° = 180°

Solve for x

53 + 8x - 9 = 180

Collect like terms

53 - 9 + 8x = 180

44 + 8x = 180

Subtract 44 from both sides

44 + 8x - 44 = 180 - 44

8x = 136

Divide both sides by 8

8x/8 = 136/8

x = 17
