Question 495434: Angle P and Angle Q are supplementary. m Angle P = 5x+3 and m Angle Q= x+3. x

What I've tried: 5x+3= x+3.x

Answer by cleomenius(959)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5x + 3 + x + 3 = 180
6x + 6 = 180
6x = 174
x = 29
P = 5(29) + 3 = 148 degrees
Q = 29 + 3 = 32 degrees.
148 degrees + 32 degrees = 180 degrees.
This does check.
