Hope I didn't mess up for your sake
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try! A variable doesn't have to be "x", it could be "y", "w" or any letter, name or symbol.
The X and Y angles created by lines intersection in the pictures are 18° and 54°.
Based on the picture, angle ∠MON is a right angle hence it has an 90° angle. We then know that the ∠MOA is 72°. Because angle ∠MOA lies within the angle ∠MON, hence we can write the following formula:
∠MON = ∠MOA +∠AON = 90°
∠MON = 72° + ∠AON = 90°
∠AON = 18° ... (i)
If we focus on the line CD being intersected by the line AB, hence we can conclude that the angles form by this intersection will follow these rules:
∠AOD = ∠BOC
∠AOC = ∠BOD
∠AOD + AOC = 180°
∠BOC + ∠BOD = 180°
Based on the picture, we know that:
∠BOC = x
∠AOC = ∠MOA + ∠MOC
∠AOC = 72° + y ...(ii)
∠AOD = ∠AON + ∠NOD
∠AOD = 18° +2x
∠BOC = 3x ... (iii)
Because we already know that ∠BOC = AOD, hence we could rewrite the formula into:
∠BOC = ∠AOD
3x = 18° + 2x
x = 18° ... (iv)
To find the value of y, we need to focus on angle ∠AOC. Based on the previous calculations and formulas, we know that:
∠AOC + ∠BOC = 180° ... (v)
Input equations (ii) and (iv) into (v)
∠AOC + ∠BOC = 180°
(72° + y) + 3x = 180°
72° + y + 3(18°) = 180°
126° + y = 180°
y = 54° ... (vi)

A is the answer because if you calculate the answer correctly. that will be so.
I suppose you just have to simplify this expression.
(2ˣ⁺² - 2ˣ⁺³) / (2ˣ⁺¹ - 2ˣ⁺²)
Divide through every term by the lowest power of 2, which would be <em>x</em> + 1 :
… = (2ˣ⁺²/2ˣ⁺¹ - 2ˣ⁺³/2ˣ⁺¹) / (2ˣ⁺¹/2ˣ⁺¹ - 2ˣ⁺²/2ˣ⁺¹)
Recall that <em>n</em>ª / <em>n</em>ᵇ = <em>n</em>ª⁻ᵇ, so that we have
… = (2⁽ˣ⁺²⁾ ⁻ ⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾ - 2⁽ˣ⁺³⁾ ⁻ ⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾) / (2⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾ ⁻ ⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾ - 2⁽ˣ⁺²⁾ ⁻ ⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾)
… = (2¹ - 2²) / (2⁰ - 2¹)
… = (2 - 4) / (1 - 2)
… = (-2) / (-1)
… = 2
Another way to get the same result: rewrite every term as a multiple of <em>y</em> = 2ˣ :
… = (2²×2ˣ - 2³×2ˣ) / (2×2ˣ - 2²×2ˣ)
… = (4×2ˣ - 8×2ˣ) / (2×2ˣ - 4×2ˣ)
… = (4<em>y</em> - 8<em>y</em>) / (2<em>y</em> - 4<em>y</em>)
… = (-4<em>y</em>) / (-2<em>y</em>)
… = 2
