Answer:


x=(60)/(7)\ units or
x=8(4)/(7)\ units

Explanation:

The correct question is

The two rectangles show are similar. Find the value of x

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem


(20)/(14)=(x)/(6)

solve for x


x=(20)/(14)(6)


x=(120)/(14)\ units

simplify


x=(60)/(7)\ units

convert to mixed number


x=(60)/(7)\ units=(56)/(7)+(4)/(7)=8(4)/(7)\ units
