Explanation:

5x-17 and 3x-11 are supplementary angles

They add up to 180 degrees

5x-17 + 3x - 11 = 180

8x - 28 = 180

8x= 208

x= 26

3x-11, 90, and 2y + 5 added together equal 180

3x-11 + 90 + 2y + 5 = 180

3(26) - 11 + 2y + 5 = 90

78 - 6 + 2y = 90

72 + 2y = 90

2y = 18

y = 9

I hope this helps!!!
