I was given a problem, but I do not know how to figure it out.

Fives times the measure of an angle is 48 more than the measure of its supplement.  What is the measure of each angle?

I came up with an equation 5x-48=y, but I do not know how to figure out the two different angles.

Can anyone help me?
