Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Extend line AB so that it intersects ray CE at point G. Then angles BGC and BAD are "alternate interior angles", hence congruent.
The angle at B is exterior to triangle BCG, and is equal to the sum of the interior angles at C and G:
138 = (376 -23x) +(x^2 -8x)
Subtracting 138 and collecting terms we have ...
x^2 -31x +238 = 0
For your calculator, a=1, b=-31, c=238.

<em>Additional comment</em>
You will find that the solutions to this are x = {14, 17}. You will also find that angle BCE will have corresponding values of 54° and -15°. That is, the solution x=17 is "extraneous." It is a solution to the equation, but not to the problem.
For x=14, the marked angles are A = 84°, C = 54°.

EXPLANATION
From the Pascal's triangle,
The coefficients are :
1, 5, 10,10, 5,1
Because of the negative sign, the expansion will alternate sign.
![(x - y) ^{5} = {x}^{5} - 5 {x}^{4} y + 10 {x}^{3} {y}^{2} - 10 {x}^{2} {y}^{3} + 5x {y}^{4} - {y}^{5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28x%20-%20y%29%20%5E%7B5%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B5%7D%20%20-%205%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B4%7D%20y%20%2B%2010%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B3%7D%20%20%7By%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%20-%2010%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%7By%7D%5E%7B3%7D%20%20%2B%205x%20%7By%7D%5E%7B4%7D%20%20-%20%20%7By%7D%5E%7B5%7D%20)
We now put y=5 into the expansion to get,
![(x - 5) ^{5} = {x}^{5} - 5 {x}^{4} (5) + 10 {x}^{3} ( {5}^{2}) - 10 {x}^{2} ({5})^{3} + 5x( {5})^{4} - {5}^{5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28x%20-%205%29%20%5E%7B5%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B5%7D%20%20-%205%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B4%7D%20%285%29%20%2B%2010%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B3%7D%20%28%20%7B5%7D%5E%7B2%7D%29%20%20-%2010%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%28%7B5%7D%29%5E%7B3%7D%20%20%2B%205x%28%20%7B5%7D%29%5E%7B4%7D%20%20-%20%7B5%7D%5E%7B5%7D%20)
