Step 1

Find the value of x

we know that

If lines p and q are parallel

then


(45x-5)+(16x+2)=180\° ------> by consecutive interior angles

Solve for x


(45x-5)+(16x+2)=180\° \\61x=180+3 \\x=3\°

Step 2

Find the value of y

we know that

If lines p and q are parallel

then


(26y)=(45x-5) ------> by corresponding angles

substitute the value of x and solve for y


(26y)=(45*3-5)


(26y)=130


y=5\°

therefore

the answer is the option


x=3\° ,
y=5\°
