In the image, you are asked to find the value of \( x \), with the following information:

- Lines \( AB \parallel CD \)
- Angle \( \angle ABO = 50^\circ \)
- Angle \( \angle ODC = 30^\circ \)

### Solution:
Since \( AB \parallel CD \), and the line segment \( OB \) crosses them, the angles formed on the alternate sides of the transversal are alternate interior angles. This means that \( \angle ABO \) and \( \angle BOD \) are equal as they are alternate interior angles.

Thus, \( \angle BOD = 50^\circ \).

Now, we can use the fact that the sum of the angles in the triangle \( OBD \) must equal \( 180^\circ \). That gives us:

\[
x + 50^\circ + 30^\circ = 180^\circ
\]

Simplifying:

\[
x + 80^\circ = 180^\circ
\]

\[
x = 180^\circ - 80^\circ = 100^\circ
\]

So, the value of \( x \) is \( \boxed{100^\circ} \).
