Answer:

B. x=50, y=27

Explanation:

Since we know that MNOP is a rectangle we also know that each angle equals 90°.

So now we do

2x-10=90 3y+9=90

+10 +10 -9 -9

2x=100 3y=81

/2 /2 /3 /3

x=50 y=27

so than this is a rectangle than 2x-10=90 so 2x = 100 so x = 50 and for y you can writing 3y +9 =90 so 3y = 81 so y = 27

so this mean that choice B. is righ sure
