Answer:

x = 405

Explanation:

DBE is 0.1x-33 and the measurement of angle CBE is

The sum of both angles form a right angled triangle ;

DBE + CBE = DBC

DBC = RIGHT angled triangle = 90°

(0.1x-33) + (0.3x - 39) = 90°

0.1x - 33 + 0.3x - 39 = 90°

0.1x + 0.3x - 33 - 39 = 90

0.4x - 72 = 90

0.4x = 90 + 72

0.4x = 162

x = 162 / 0.4

x = 405
