Find the value of x.

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles in a triangle add up to equal 180

Hence, 9x - 8 + x + 10 + x + 2 = 180

                              ^ ( note that we just created an equation that we can use

                                   to solve for x )

We now solve for x using the equation created.

9x - 8 + x + 10 + x + 2 = 180  

step 1 combine like terms

9x + x + x = 11x

-8 + 10 + 2 = 4

we now have 11x + 4 = 180

step 2 subtract 4 from each side

180 - 4 = 176

4 - 4 cancels out

we now have 11x = 176

step 3 divide each side by 11

176 / 11= 16

11x / 11 = x

we're left with x = 16

a 10 percent increase
