Answer:

x=35

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are alternate interior angles.  Alternate interior angles are equal if the lines are parallel.

3x+16 = 5x-54

Subtract 3x from each side

3x -3x+16 = 5x-3x-54

16 = 2x-54

Add 54 to each side

16+54 = 2x-54+54

70 = 2x

Divide each side by 2

70/2 = 2x/2

35 =x
