Answer:

∠ P = 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since NM = PM then the triangle is isosceles with base angles being congruent, then

∠ P = ∠ N , that is

8y - 16 = 6y ( subtract 6y from both sides )

2y - 16 = 0 ( add 16 to both sides )

2y = 16 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 8

Then

∠ P = 8y - 16 = 8(8) - 16 = 64 - 16 = 48°
