I cannot figure out what the equation is so I can solve this. If someone could help me get the algebraic equation- then I can solve it on my own. Please and thanks.

If one-half of the complement of an angle plus three-fourths of the supplement of the angle equals 110 degrees, find the measure of the angle.
 
if x = measure of the angle, then ...
90-x = measure of the angle's complement
180-x = measure of the angles supplement

one-half of the complement of an angle plus three-fourths of the supplement of the angle equals 110 degrees

(1/2)(90-x) + (3/4)(180-x) = 110

solve for the measure of the angle, x.
