Answer:

Explanation:

I assume the figures are parallelograms, then

1). KL = MJ and

12x - 22 = 7x - 2

12x - 7x = 22 - 2

5x = 20

x = 4

2). m∠RQT + m∠QTS = 180°

(The picture is not clear and I might be wrong about coefficients by x for ∠RQT and ∠QTS)

(3x + 5)° + (9x - 17)° = 180°

12x - 12 = 180

12x = 192

x = 16
