Final answer:

The relationship between angle m and angle p can be found by setting them equal to each other. The value of x is 22.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between angle m and angle p can be found by setting them equal to each other:

2x + 16 = 3x - 6

To solve for x, you can subtract 2x from both sides of the equation:

16 = x - 6

Add 6 to both sides to isolate x:

22 = x

So the value of x is 22. Therefore, the answer is not provided in the options given.
