Answer:

x = 12 and y = 24 Can I get brainiiest

Explanation:

We know (3x + 34) and (2x + 46) are vertical to each other so they equal the same measure. We will solve it like this.

3x + 34 = 2x + 46 (subtract 34 on each side)

3x = 2x + 12 (subtract 2x on both sides)

x = 12

Now plug in

3(12) + 34 = 2(12) + 46

36 + 34 = 24 + 46

70 = 70

Now all you have to do is do the other pair of angle

4y + 14 + 70 = 180 (we are using what we already know about 70)

(collect like terms)

4y + 84 = 180 (subtract 84 on both sides)

4y = 76 (divide by 4)

y = 24

(plug in)

4(24) + 14 = 6(24) - 34

96 + 14 = 144 - 34

110 = 110
