The value of x=11. Hope we helped!

Answer 2

x = 11

Explanation:

The line parallel to the base line and intersecting the other 2 sides divides those sides proportionally, thus

`(6)/(48)` =
`(5)/(3x+7)` ( cross- multiply )

6(3x + 7) = 240 ( divide both sides by 6 )

3x + 7 = 40 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

3x = 33 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 11
