OpenStudy (anonymous):

what does "supplement" mean?

if you know, we can finish this real quick

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you do not know, then i can tell you just asking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 angles whose measures = 180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok good so if we call the first angle say \(x\) then the other one must be \(180-x\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the equation will then be \[5x=(180-x)+48\] and you can solve that for \(x\) in 3 steps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you good from there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yessss can you help with just one other please ?
