Answer:

C) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Arcs on one side of the diameter adds upto 180°.

Therefore,

[tex](2 + 17x) \degree + 54 \degree + 56 \degree = 180 \degree \\ \\ (2 + 17x) \degree + 110 \degree = 180 \degree \\ \\ (2+ 17x) \degree = 180 \degree - 110 \degree\\ \\ (2 + 17x) \degree = 70 \degree \\ \\ 2 + 17x = 70 \\ 17x = 70 - 2 \\ \\ x = \frac{68}{17} \\ \\ x = 4[/tex]

Answer:

Choice C) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can do this in multiple different ways but I will do it in the way I believe will be the fastest.

So since we already know everything on one side of the line, we can use that to find x. The line is 180° and since the angles are on the line we know that they will all add up to 180.

For this we will need an equation:

[tex]2+17x+54+56=180[/tex]

Now we add the like terms:

[tex]112+17x=180[/tex]

Subtract the 112 on both sides:

[tex]17x=68[/tex]

Divide the 17 on both sides:

[tex]x=4[/tex]
