Answer:

b

Explanation:

The opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent , thus

3y + 2 = 62 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

3y = 60 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 20

Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary, thus

5x + 3 + 62 = 180 , that is

5x + 65 = 180 ( subtract 65 from both sides )

5x = 115 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 23
