Answer:

y = 43

Explanation:

Given AB is a straight line segment, and since angles on a straight line sum to 180°, we can construct the following equation:

⇒ 47° + y° + 90° = 180°

To find the value of y, solve the equation for y:

⇒ 137° + y° = 180°

⇒ 137° + y° - 137° = 180° - 137°

⇒ y° = 43°

⇒ y = 43

Therefore, the value of y is 43.
