Explanation:

Step1: Identify straight angle

A straight angle is \(180^\circ\). So, \(103^\circ+(3x + 15)^\circ+(x + 10)^\circ=180^\circ\).

Step2: Simplify the equation

Combine like terms: \(103 + 3x+15+x + 10 = 180\).
\(128 + 4x = 180\).

Step3: Solve for x

Subtract 128 from both sides: \(4x=180 - 128=52\).
Divide by 4: \(x = \frac{52}{4}=13\).

Step4: Find the angle between Derby Drive and Rosemont Ave

The angle is \((x + 10)^\circ\). Substitute \(x = 13\): \(13+10 = 23^\circ\)? Wait, no, wait: Wait, the angle between them is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)\)? Wait, no, wait. Wait, the angle between Derby Drive (x + 10) and Rosemont Ave (3x + 15) is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\). Wait, no, wait. Wait, first, let's re - check the straight angle.

Wait, the straight angle is \(180^\circ\), so \(103+(3x + 15)+(x + 10)=180\). So \(3x+x+15 + 10+103=180\), \(4x+128 = 180\), \(4x = 52\), \(x = 13\). Then the angle between Derby Drive (which is \(x + 10\)) and Rosemont Ave (which is \(3x + 15\)) is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\). Substitute \(x = 13\): \(2\times13+5=26 + 5=31^\circ\)? Wait, no, wait. Wait, maybe I misread. Wait, the angle between Derby Drive (the lower ray) and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)\)? No, wait, the two rays are Rosemont Ave \((3x + 15)\) and Derby Drive \((x + 10)\), so the angle between them is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\). Wait, but let's check again.

Wait, the straight line: left angle is \(103^\circ\), then the middle angle is \((3x + 15)^\circ\), then the right angle is \((x + 10)^\circ\). So total \(103+(3x + 15)+(x + 10)=180\). So \(4x+128 = 180\), \(x = 13\). Then the angle between Derby Drive (right ray, \(x + 10\)) and Rosemont Ave (middle ray, \(3x + 15\)) is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\). Plug \(x = 13\): \(2\times13+5 = 31\)? Wait, no, wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, \(x+10\) when \(x = 13\) is \(23\), \(3x + 15\) when \(x = 13\) is \(3\times13+15=54\). Then \(54 - 23=31\). Alternatively, maybe the angle between them is \((x + 10)\)? No, that can't be. Wait, no, the problem says "the angle of the intersection between Derby Drive and Rosemont Avenue", which is the angle between the two rays, so it's \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\). Wait, but let's check the straight angle again. \(103+54+23=180\) (since \(3x + 15=54\), \(x + 10=23\), \(103+54+23 = 180\)), yes. So the angle between them is \(54 - 23=31\)? Wait, no, \(3x + 15-(x + 10)=2x + 5\), \(x = 13\), so \(2\times13+5 = 31\). Wait, but maybe I misinterpreted the diagram. Wait, maybe the angle between Derby Drive (the horizontal ray) and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)\)? No, that would be \(23\), but let's see. Wait, the user's diagram: left angle \(103^\circ\), then a ray to Rosemont Ave \((3x + 15)^\circ\) from the left ray, then a ray to Derby Drive \((x + 10)^\circ\) from Rosemont Ave? No, no, the diagram is: a straight line (left and right), with a vertex. The left angle is \(103^\circ\), then from the vertex, a ray to Rosemont Ave making \((3x + 15)^\circ\) with the left - adjacent ray, and a ray to Derby Drive making \((x + 10)^\circ\) with Rosemont Ave? No, no, the correct interpretation is: the sum of \(103^\circ\), \((3x + 15)^\circ\), and \((x + 10)^\circ\) is \(180^\circ\) (straight angle). So we found \(x = 13\). Then the angle between Derby Drive (the ray with \((x + 10)^\circ\)) and Rosemont Ave (the ray with \((3x + 15)^\circ\)) is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\). Substituting \(x = 13\), we get \(2\times13+5=31\). Wait, but let's check again. \(x + 10=23\), \(3x + 15=54\), \(103+54+23 = 180\), correct. So the angle between Derby Drive and Rosemont Ave is \(54 - 23=31\) degrees? Wait, no, the angle between Derby Drive (the horizontal ray) and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)\)? No, that's the angle from Rosemont Ave to Derby Drive? Wait, no, the two rays are Rosemont Ave and Derby Drive, with angles \((3x + 15)\) and \((x + 10)\) from the left - side ray. Wait, maybe the angle between Derby Drive (horizontal) and Rosemont Ave is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\), which is \(31\). But wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's re - do the steps.

Wait, step 1: Straight angle is \(180^\circ\). So \(103+(3x + 15)+(x + 10)=180\).

Step 2: Combine like terms: \(103+15+10+3x+x=180\) → \(128 + 4x=180\).

Step 3: \(4x=180 - 128=52\) → \(x = 13\).

Step 4: The angle between Derby Drive ( \(x + 10\)) and Rosemont Ave ( \(3x + 15\)) is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\). Substitute \(x = 13\): \(2\times13+5=31\). Wait, but maybe the angle is \((x + 10)\)? No, that would be \(23\), but let's check the sum: \(103+54+23 = 180\), which is correct. But the angle between Derby Drive and Rosemont Ave is the angle between the two rays, which is \((3x + 15)-(x + 10)=2x + 5\), so \(31\). Wait, but maybe I misread the diagram. Alternatively, maybe the angle between Derby Drive (horizontal) and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)\)? No, that doesn't make sense. Wait, no, the diagram: the left ray, then a ray to Rosemont Ave with angle \((3x + 15)\) from the left ray, then a ray to Derby Drive with angle \((x + 10)\) from Rosemont Ave. So the angle between Derby Drive and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)\)? No, that would be the angle from Rosemont Ave to Derby Drive. Wait, I think I made a mistake. Let's see: the total angle on a straight line is \(180^\circ\). So the angle between the left ray and Derby Drive is \(103^\circ+(3x + 15)^\circ+(x + 10)^\circ=180^\circ\). So the angle between Derby Drive (the right - most ray) and Rosemont Ave (the middle ray) is \((x + 10)^\circ\)? No, that can't be. Wait, no, the middle ray is Rosemont Ave, the right - most is Derby Drive. So the angle between them is \((x + 10)^\circ\)? Wait, when \(x = 13\), \(x + 10=23\), and \(3x + 15=54\), \(103+54+23 = 180\), so that works. Wait, maybe the angle between Derby Drive and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)^\circ\), which is \(23^\circ\)? But that contradicts my earlier thought. Wait, no, let's look at the diagram again. The diagram has: left ray (horizontal left), then a vertex, then a ray to Rosemont Ave (at an angle of \((3x + 15)^\circ\) from the left - adjacent ray), then a ray to Derby Drive (at an angle of \((x + 10)^\circ\) from Rosemont Ave, towards the horizontal right). So the angle between Derby Drive (horizontal right) and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)^\circ\). So when \(x = 13\), that angle is \(23^\circ\). Wait, but then the angle between the left ray and Rosemont Ave is \(103^\circ+(x + 10)^\circ+(3x + 15)^\circ\)? No, I think I misinterpreted the diagram. Let's start over.

Correct interpretation: The straight line is horizontal. The left angle is \(103^\circ\), then from the vertex, a ray goes up to Rosemont Ave, making an angle of \((3x + 15)^\circ\) with the horizontal (Derby Drive)? No, no. Wait, the diagram: a straight line (left and right), with a vertex. The left part is \(103^\circ\) from the vertex to the left ray. Then from the vertex, a ray to Rosemont Ave, and a ray to Derby Drive (horizontal right). The angle between the left ray and Rosemont Ave is \((3x + 15)^\circ\), and the angle between Rosemont Ave and Derby Drive is \((x + 10)^\circ\). So the total angle on the straight line is \(103^\circ+(3x + 15)^\circ+(x + 10)^\circ=180^\circ\). So we solve for \(x\):

\(103+3x + 15+x + 10=180\)

\(128+4x=180\)

\(4x=52\)

\(x = 13\)

Then the angle between Derby Drive (horizontal right) and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)^\circ=13 + 10=23^\circ\)? Wait, but then the angle between the left ray and Rosemont Ave is \(3x + 15=3\times13+15=54^\circ\), and \(103+54+23=180\), which is correct. Oh! I see my mistake earlier. The angle between Derby Drive (horizontal right) and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)^\circ\), not the difference. Because the diagram shows: left ray, then a ray to Rosemont Ave (angle \((3x + 15)\) from left ray), then a ray to Derby Drive (angle \((x + 10)\) from Rosemont Ave, towards the horizontal right). So the angle between Derby Drive and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)^\circ\). So with \(x = 13\), that angle is \(23^\circ\). Wait, but that seems small. Wait, no, \(103+54+23=180\), which is correct. So the angle between Derby Drive and Rosemont Avenue is \(23^\circ\)? Wait, but let's check again.

Wait, the straight line: left ray, vertex, then two rays: Rosemont Ave and Derby Drive. The angle between left ray and Rosemont Ave is \((3x + 15)\), between Rosemont Ave and Derby Drive is \((x + 10)\), and between left ray and Derby Drive (the straight line) would be \(103+(3x + 15)+(x + 10)=180\). So the angle between Derby Drive and Rosemont Ave is \((x + 10)\), which is \(23^\circ\) when \(x = 13\).

Answer:

\(23\)
