Answer:

The value of x = 11 units

Explanation:

From the figure we can see a triangle.

A parallel line to one side cut other two sides.

From this we get the parallel line cut the sides in the same ratio

Find the value of x

From figure we can write,

6/48 = 5/(3x + 7)

6(3x + 7) = 5 * 48

18x + 42 = 240

18x = 240 - 42 = 198

x = 198/18 = 11
