Answer: m<ABC = 45 degrees, m<DBC = 36 degrees

Explanation:

set both equations equal to 81 because they add up to form one angle:

5x + 6 + 9x - 9 = 81

Combine like terms

14x - 3 = 81

Add three to both sides

14x = 84

Divide by 14 to find x

x = 6

To find the angles:

Measurement of angle ABC:

9(6) - 9 = 45 degrees

Take the original angle of 81 and subtract the angle you just found to find the remaining angle:

81 - 45 = 36

Therefore, the angle of DBC is 36 degrees
