Question 645847: the meausure of the complement of an angle is 13 more than 6 times the measure of the angle. First determine the measure of the angle.. and then state the supplement.

I tried:
90-x=13+6(90-x)
but that didn't work out

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
+90+-+x+=+6x+%2B+13+
+7x+=+90+-+13+
+7x+=+77+
+x+=+11+
The angle is 11 degrees
The complement is +90+-+11+ =
79 degrees
