Answer:

[tex]x=22[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Because [tex]\angle ABC=\angle ABD+\angle DBC=80^{\circ}[/tex], we have that [tex](2x+4)+(2x-12)=80[/tex].

Combining like terms on the left side gives [tex]4x-8=80[/tex].

Adding [tex]8[/tex] to both sides gives [tex]4x=88[/tex].

Dividing both sides of the equation by [tex]4[/tex] gives [tex]\boxed{x=22}[/tex].

I haven’t done this in a while but I’ll try ….

2x - 12 + 2x + 4 = 80
4x - 8 = 80
+ 8 = + 8
4x = 88
Divide by 4
x = 22
Maybe… I hope it’s right!
