Can someone explain to me how to do this

y = 18

x = 46

measures of the angles:

8y - 102 = 42

2y + 6 = 42

3x = 138

Step-by-step explanation:

So first remember the verticle angles theorem, which states that, when two lines intersect there will be four angles formed; the angles that are opposite from each other will be congruent, that is,  they will have the same measure.

Using this we know that opposite angles have to be congruent:

so

(2y + 6) = (8y -102)

now there is an algebra equation that can be solved by inverse operations and simplifying

2y + 6 = 8y - 102

    +102      +102

2y + 108 = 8y

-2y             -2y

108 = 6y

/6        /6

18 = y

Also, remember that two adjacent angles that form a line will add up to 180,

so

3x + (2y + 6) = 180

*note: I could have also used (8y - 102) but I choose to use (2y + 6)

so now substitute in the value of y that was found

y = 18

3x + (2 * 18 + 6) = 180

simplify

3x + ( 36 + 6) = 180

3x + 42 = 180

now use inverse operations

3x + 42 = 180

     -42     -42

3x = 138

/3      /3

x = 46

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40;

step-by-step explanation:

walter has to make a minimum of 20 cookies. he already has 15 cookies made, so he must make 5 more to meet the minimum.

the maximum amount of cookies he can make is 55. he already has 15, so he has to make no more than 40 more cookies to meet the maximum.
