If the degree measure of an angle is 40 degrees less than 3 times the degree measure of its supplementary angle, what is the degree measure of the angle

The degree measure of the angle is 125 degrees

step-by-step explanation:

The degree measure of an angle is 40 degrees less than 3 times the degree measure of its supplementary angle.

Let x = the degree measure of the angle.

For supplementary angles, sum of the angles = 180 degrees.

The supplementary angle of x is (180-x) degrees .

3 times the degree measure of the supplementary angle of x and it is greater than x by 40 degrees

= 3(180-x)-40degrees

x = 540-3x-40

x +3x = 540-40

4x = 500

x = 500/4

x = 125 degrees

36/60

36/2=18

60/2=30

18/30

18/3=6

30/3=10

6/10

6/2=3

10/2=5

your final answer would be 3/5 of an

hope this !

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
