Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the measure of ∠CEB.

We already know that the 3 angles combined have a total sum of 163°.

Let's set the 3 angles equal to 163°.

[tex]x-10+4x +2x+5=163[/tex]


Now, we should Combine Like Terms.

What is Combining Like Terms?

Combining Like Terms is adding, or subtracting together 2 or more numbers or variables that are alike.

For example, if we were given the expression;

[tex]5x + 3 - 2x + 9[/tex]

We should combine 5x and 2x, 3 and 9 since they are like terms.

For our equation;

[tex]x-10+4x +2x+5=163[/tex]

We should combine x, 4x, and 2x. We also should combine -10, 5, and 163.

Afterwards, we should have:

[tex]7x=168[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]x= 24[/tex]

Substitute 24 within the value of x in the given expression for ∠CEB.

Substitute:

[tex]-10 + 4(24) = 86[/tex]

The measure of ∠CEB = 86°
