10y + 7 + 3(3y + 7) = 180

10y + 7 + 9y + 21 = 180

19y + 28 = 180

19y = 180 - 28

19y = 152

y = 152/19

y = 8

Plug back into Q and S.

Q = 10y + 7

Q = 10(8) + 7

Q = 80 + 7

Q = 87

S = 3(3y + 7)

S = 9y + 21

S = 9(8) + 21

S = 72 + 21

S = 93

Without solving for x to find the other angles, we can easily see that the answer is choice C.

Answer:

P = 61°

Q = 87°

R = 119°

S = 93°

Done!
