The measure of the complement of an angle is 37+2x. The measure of a supplement of an angle is 141+x. What is the angle?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "37+2x=90-x
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 53
\n" ); document.write( "x = 53/3
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "141+x = 180-x
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 39
\n" ); document.write( "x = 39/2
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "I get the same results as you do.
\n" ); document.write( "================
