Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that arc AB is where the inscribed angle meets the outside of the circle, then the rule is that the inscribed angle is 1/2 of the measure of its intercepted arc.  For us,

[tex]5x-7=\frac{1}{2}(2x)[/tex]

Solving for x:

2(5x - 7) = 2x so

10x - 14 = 2x and

8x = 14 so

x = 1.75
