Find an angle such that 3 times the complement of the angle is 10 degrees less than the supplement of the angle.

I know that supplement means 180 and complement is 90. I dont know what kind of problem this is.

3 (90-x)= (180-x) -10

270-3x= -1800+10x

2070=13x

Divide through by 13 and there it is. Translate what is given to something that you can use.
