Answer:

B x = 7

Explanation:

You know based on the ratio that it's being scaled by 4 times because the one side 4 is 16 in the bigger pentagon.

So if you go the side that matches the one you need to solve, it's 2.5.

2.5 times 4 = 10 so that bigger pentagon side should equal 10.

The equation x-3 = 10

which means x is 7
