Answer:

X is 18, and Y is 10.5

Explanation:

The 92 degree measure is an example of a vertical angle relationship with the (6x-16) which means that that expression would have to equal 92. Solve for X by adding 16 and then dividing by 6. The 92 and 8y together nake a straight line which is equal to 180 degrees. (180-92) divided by 8 to get y
