use an algebraic equation to find the measures of the two angles described below. Begin by letting x represent the degree measure of the angle's supplement.
The measure of the angle is nine times greater than its supplement

What is the measure of the supplement?

What is the measure of the other angle?

shamil98 · Answer

Supplementary angles add up to 180.
so
 x + y = 180
9x = y

shamil98 · Answer

Substitution,
x + 9x = 180
10x = 180
Solve for x from there.

18?

shamil98 · Answer

mhm,
then substitute x and solve for y
18 + y = 180

anonymous · Answer

162?

shamil98 · Answer

yes,
y = 162
and x = 18

What is the measure of the supplement?

What is the measure of the other angle?
So what would i put for these questions

shamil98 · Answer

Begin by letting x represent the degree measure of the angle's supplement.
so 9x = y
The measure of the angle is nine times greater than its supplement
the angle's supplement is y, the other angle is x.
