WHAT IS AN ANGLE 4 TIMES ANOTHER ANGLE THAT IS SUPPLEMENTARY?
------------------
angle : x
supplement: 180-x
------------------------------
Equation:
x = 4(180-x)
x = 720-4x
5x = 720
x = 144 degrees
======================

let x be the measure of the angle
supplementary = 180-x
4 times supplementary = 4(180-x)
x=4(180-x)
x= 720-4x
5x=720
x=144

angle : x
supplement angle: 180-x
Form an Equation:
x = 4(180-x)
x = 720-4x
x+4x=720
5x=720
x =720/5
x=144 degrees
Good luck!
