Answer 2

Let's use the angle relationships to find the value of x.

Since line m intersects with line n, we can use the property that the sum of angles on a straight line is 180 degrees. So, we have:

120 + (2x + 10) = 180

Now, let's solve for x:

2x + 130 = 180
2x = 180 - 130
2x = 50
x = 50/2
x = 25

Therefore, the value of x is 25.

Answer 3

To determine the value of y, we can use the property that angles that are opposite each other when two lines intersect are equal.

In the diagram, the angle measure labeled as (2y + 30) is opposite the angle measure of 120 degrees.

Therefore, we can set up the equation:

2y + 30 = 120

Now, let's solve for y:

2y = 120 - 30
2y = 90
y = 90/2
y = 45

Therefore, the value of y is 45.
