Whats the solution to this equation: Two angles are supplementary. The measure of one angle is 10 more than three times the other. Find the measure of each angle.
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 180
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3y+10
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"x\" and solve for \"y\":
\n" ); document.write( "3y+10 + y = 180
\n" ); document.write( "4y = 170
\n" ); document.write( "y = 42.5 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3y+10 = 137.5 degrees
