Answer:

y = 23

x = 28

Explanation:

Find y first.

3y + 5y - 4 = 180 The two angles are supplementary if the all the lines are parallel. Combine the left side.

8y - 4 = 180 Add 4 to both sides

8y - 4 + 4 = 180 + 4

8y = 184 Divide both sides by 8

y = 23

====================================

Now if the lines are parallel, then 3y = 2x + 13

But we already know y

3*23 = 2x + 13 Do the multiplication

69 = 2x + 13 Subtract 13

56 = 2x Divide by 2

x = 56/2

x = 28
