1. **State the problem:** We are given a pentagon with interior angles labeled as $4x$, $(5x + 3)$, $(2x + 1)$, $(4x + 14)$, and $4x$ degrees. We need to solve for $x$.
2. **Recall the formula for the sum of interior angles of a polygon:** For a polygon with $n$ sides, the sum of interior angles is given by:
$$\text{Sum of interior angles} = (n - 2) \times 180^\circ$$
Since this is a pentagon, $n = 5$, so:
$$\text{Sum} = (5 - 2) \times 180 = 3 \times 180 = 540^\circ$$
3. **Set up the equation:** The sum of the given angles must equal $540^\circ$:
$$4x + (5x + 3) + (2x + 1) + (4x + 14) + 4x = 540$$
4. **Combine like terms:**
$$4x + 5x + 3 + 2x + 1 + 4x + 14 + 4x = 540$$
$$ (4x + 5x + 2x + 4x + 4x) + (3 + 1 + 14) = 540$$
$$19x + 18 = 540$$
5. **Isolate $x$:**
$$19x + 18 = 540$$
$$19x = 540 - 18$$
$$19x = 522$$
6. **Divide both sides by 19:**
$$x = \frac{522}{19}$$
Show cancellation:
$$x = \frac{\cancel{19} \times 27.4737}{\cancel{19}}$$
7. **Calculate the value:**
$$x = 27.4737$$
**Final answer:**
$$x \approx 27.47$$
