Answer:

35°

Explanation:

the sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is 360 degrees

let 's make and solve the equation

3y + 25 + 2y + 30 + 2y - 5 + y +30 = 360

Combine like terms then you will get

(3y + 2y + 2y + y) + (25 + 30 - 5 + 30) = 360

8y + 80 = 360

8y + 80 - 80 = 360 - 80

8y = 280

y = 280:8

y= 35
