Final answer:

To find the value of x, set up an equation using the given information and solve for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, we need to set up an equation using the given information. Since T is the midpoint of W and B, that means BT and WB are equal in length. So, we can set up the equation:

BT = WB

11x - 31 = 92

Now, we can solve for x:

11x = 92 + 31

11x = 123

x = 123/11

x = 11

Therefore, the value of x is 11.
