Answer:
can't be done. x = 6, not 36
Explanation:
Without the diagram we must speculate that the 150 cm length is the hypotenuse. Then we have ...
150² = (7x)² +(24x)² = (49 +576)x² = 625x² . . . . Pythagorean relation
150²/625 = x² = 36 . . . . . divide by 625
x = √36 . . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
x = 6
