Last one I need help on:

The measure of one angle is 38 degrees less than the measure of its supplement. Find the measure of each angle.

Math (Please help immediately) - Darren, Thursday, September 6, 2012 at 8:58pm
x+y=180
y= x+38
x+(x+38)= 180
2x+38=180
-38 =-38
2x = 142

x= 71

plug it in equation

71+71+38= 180

angle 1 = 71
angle 2 = 109
