the question is as follows.
Find an angel such that 3 times the complement of the angel is 10 degrees less than the supplement of the angel.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the angle have measure "x".
Supplement is 180-x
Complement is 90-x
EQUATION:
3(90-x)=(180-x)-10
270-3x=170-x
2x=100
x=50 degrees
