Angles α=(2x+5)∘\alpha=(2x+5)^\circ and β=(3x−15)∘\beta=(3x-15)^\circ depend on an integer xx. Which one of the following statements is true? (a) The angles are complementary when x=38x=38. (b) No integer value of xx makes the angles complementary, but x=38x=38 makes them supplementary. (c) The angles are complementary when x=20x=20. (d) The angles are supplementary when x=34x=34.
