I'm so confused how do you do this

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite angles are non-adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. Opposite angles are congruent (equal in measure).
3x = 2x + 16
x = 16
----------------
check
3 * 16 = 2 * 16 + 16
48 = 48
the answer is good
Answer:
x=16
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both angles are vertically opposite, there fore they equal each other.
2x + 16 = 3x
Subtract 3x from both sides
2x - 3x + 16 = 3x - 3x
-x + 16 = 0
-x = 0-16
-x = -16 (Multiply both sides by -1)
x = 16
---------
3x 16 = 48
2*16 + 16 = 48
