1. **Problem statement:** Two of the exterior angles of a pentagon are $4x$ and $2x$. The remaining three exterior angles are each $3x$. Find:
a. The value of $x$.
b. Each exterior angle.
2. **Formula and rules:** The sum of exterior angles of any polygon is always $360^\circ$.
3. **Set up the equation:**
Sum of exterior angles $= 4x + 2x + 3x + 3x + 3x = 360$
4. **Simplify:**
$$4x + 2x + 3x + 3x + 3x = 15x$$
So, $15x = 360$
5. **Solve for $x$:**
$$x = \frac{360}{15} = 24$$
6. **Find each exterior angle:**
- $4x = 4 \times 24 = 96^\circ$
- $2x = 2 \times 24 = 48^\circ$
- Each of the three $3x$ angles: $3 \times 24 = 72^\circ$
7. **Summary:**
a. $x = 24$
b. Exterior angles are $96^\circ$, $48^\circ$, and three angles of $72^\circ$ each.
This completes the solution for the first question.
