Answer:

x=13

y=25.666...

<DME=25°

<BMQ=25°

<EMQ=155°

Explanation:

3x-14=x+12

3x-x=12+14

2x=26

x=13

<DME=3x-14=3(13)-14=39-14=25

<BMQ=x+12=13+12=25

If DME and BMQ each equal 25, EMQ=180-25=155

6y+x-12=155 PLEASE CHECK - I think the picture says 6y+x-12, but if it doesn't, then this last part needs to be redone.

6y+13-12=155

6y+1=155

6y=155-1

6y=154

y=25.66666...

Angle DME and BMQ are equal cause they are opposite angles so you could equate the two to get the value of x. BME is a straight line so after finding the value of the angle BMQ you could do 180-(x+12) = 6y-x-12.
