1. **State the problem:** We are given two angles expressed in terms of $x$: $4x - 1$ degrees and $2x + 5$ degrees, and we need to find the measure of angle $m\angle MYW$. The diagram shows right angles, indicating relationships between these angles.
2. **Analyze the figure and given information:** The two right angle marks indicate that the angles adjacent to $m\angle MYW$ are $90^\circ$ each. Since rays $P$, $M$, and $W$ originate from point $Y$, the sum of angles around point $Y$ on a straight line is $180^\circ$.
3. **Set up the equation:** The sum of the two given angles plus $m\angle MYW$ equals $90^\circ$ because the right angles split the space. So,
$$ (4x - 1) + (2x + 5) + m\angle MYW = 90 $$
4. **Simplify the equation:**
$$ 4x - 1 + 2x + 5 + m\angle MYW = 90 $$
$$ 6x + 4 + m\angle MYW = 90 $$
5. **Express $m\angle MYW$ in terms of $x$:**
$$ m\angle MYW = 90 - 6x - 4 $$
$$ m\angle MYW = 86 - 6x $$
6. **Use the given value $m\angle MYW = \frac{43}{3}$ degrees:**
$$ 86 - 6x = \frac{43}{3} $$
7. **Solve for $x$:**
Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction:
$$ 3(86 - 6x) = 43 $$
$$ 258 - 18x = 43 $$
Subtract 258 from both sides:
$$ -18x = 43 - 258 $$
$$ -18x = -215 $$
Divide both sides by $-18$:
$$ x = \frac{-215}{\cancel{-18}} \cancel{\div -1} = \frac{215}{18} $$
8. **Calculate $m\angle MYW$ using $x = \frac{215}{18}$:**
$$ m\angle MYW = 86 - 6 \times \frac{215}{18} $$
$$ m\angle MYW = 86 - \frac{1290}{18} $$
Simplify $\frac{1290}{18}$:
$$ \frac{1290}{18} = 71.666\ldots = \frac{215}{3} $$
So,
$$ m\angle MYW = 86 - \frac{215}{3} = \frac{258}{3} - \frac{215}{3} = \frac{43}{3} $$
**Final answer:**
$$ m\angle MYW = \frac{43}{3} \text{ degrees} $$
This matches the given value, confirming the solution is consistent.
