Hello! Sorry, this took a minute.

All of the x's are on the same line, and they are equal to 180 degrees.

2x+x+3x+x=180

A straight line equals 180.

Combine like terms.

7x=180

Divide both sides by 7.

25.714... round to 25.7

Now, plug that into the angle that is vertical to 2y. (3x)

3(25.7)= 77.1

So, 3x= 77.1 and 2y= 77.1

Plug that in.

2y=77.1

Divide both sides by 2.

y=38.55

Round that up to 38.6.

"D" is the answer.

I hope this helps!
