Answer:

x = 20

y = 70

Explanation:

Since B and D are parallel :

6x - 10 + 3x + 10 = 180 add/subtract like terms

9x = 180 divide both sides by 9

x = 20

angle represented by y and 6x - 10 are supplementary and their sum is 180

y + 6x - 10 = 180 replace x with 20

y + 6*20 - 10 = 180

y + 120 - 10 = 180

y + 110 = 180 subtract 110 from both sides

y = 70
