Answer:


{ \tt{x + 83 = 180}}

[ Property of angles on a straight line ]


{ \tt{x = 180 - 83}} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \tt{x = 97 \degree}}}


{ \tt{(4y - 27) = x}} \\

[ Property of alternate angles ]


{ \tt{4y - 27 = 97}} \\ { \tt{4y = 124}} \\ { \tt{ (4y)/(4) = (124)/(4) }} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \tt{y = 31 \degree}}}
