Question 825631: I need help with this question
The measure of angle r is 12 degrees more than three times the measure of angle s.If angle s and angle r are supplementary angles find the measure of each angle.

Let
x - be angle s
x+12 - be angle r
If r and s re supplementary, therefore r+s=180 right?
x+ (x+12) = 180
2x = 168
x = 84

Therefore
s = 84 degrees
r = 96 degrees
