--
Angles X and Y are supplementary, so the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.
Measure for angle X given as x^2-9x. Measure for angle Y given as 11x+12.

meas. angle X plus meas. angle Y is 180 degrees.
;
the algebra from here is straightforward.

Clearly in the description, X is used for refering to an angle according to a point; and x is a numeric variable. m∠x is wrong.
