Answer:

x = 38°

y = 104°

Explanation:

You have to find the value of x and y.

All angles on a straight line are equal to 180° also called supplementary angles.

Step 1: Find y

76 + y = 180° (because supplementary angles)

y = 180 - 76

y = 104°

Step 2: Find x

2x + y = 180° (because supplementary angles)

y = 104°

2x + 104 = 180°

2x = 180 - 104

2x = 76

x = 76/2

x = 38°

Therefore, y = 104° and x = 38°.
