<span>LMN≅PQR means that point L is equal to P, point M is equal to Q, and point N is equal to R. All lines are the same.
Point Q has an angle of 72, which means that point M also has an angle of 72.
Now you have two angles to find x. All interior angles of a triangle add up to 180, so you can set up the following equation to find x:
72 + 36 + x = 180
Subtract 36 from both sides.
72 + x = 144
Subtract 72 from both sides.
x = 72
The angle of point L, x, is 72.

The answer is: 7x + 5 (x + 6) = 138 7x + 5x + 30 = 138 12x = 138 - 30 12x = 108 x = 9 $ = regular pay and overtime = 9 + 6 = 15 $...
