Verified Answer :

I think you can find it out with this formula :

5x + 2 = 3x + 14

5x - 3x  = 14 - 2

2 x     = 12

x = 6

Hope this helps

Answer:

\(x=6\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We have been given that point C is the center of the circle. Arc AB measures \(5x+2\). Angle ACB measures \(3x+14\). We are asked to find the value of x.

Since point C is the center of circle, so angle ACB will be a central angle. We know that the measure of a central angle is equal to the measure of subtended arc.

We can set an equation as:

\(m\widehat{AB}=m\angle ACB\)

\(5x+2=3x+14\)

\(5x-3x+2=3x-3x+14\)

\(2x+2=14\)

\(2x+2-2=14-2\)

\(2x=12\)

\(\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{12}{2}\)

\(x=6\)

Therefore, the value of x is 6.
