To find the value of m, we can set the measures of angles x and y equal to each other and solve for m:
3(m + 2) = 5m - 58
Expanding the left side of the equation:
3m + 6 = 5m - 58
Simplifying the equation by moving all the m terms to one side:
2m = 64
Dividing both sides by 2:
m = 32
Therefore, the value of m is 32.

are equal. Which is the value of m?
Two axes cross in the shape of an X. Angles x and y are opposite to each other. Angle X is labeled 3 (m + 2). Angle y is labeled 5 m minus 58.
