You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5x + 17x - 18 = 180
\n" ); document.write( "22x = 198
\n" ); document.write( "x = 9
\n" ); document.write( "5(9) = 45 degrees. This is one angle
\n" ); document.write( "17(9) = 153; 153 = 18 = 135 degrees. This is the second angle.
\n" ); document.write( "They are supplementary, the solution does check.
