Answer:

7

Explanation:

The two lengths (4x-7 and x+14) are the same. This is because if we look at the big trapezoid as a whole, the ratio of the three segments on the side (4, 4, 4) is the same as the ratio of the three lengths on the other side. Therefore the ratio of the two lengths would be the same as well, 1:1. (btw the photo that I attached is what I mean by the two sides). So, we can form the equation: 4x-7 = x+14. The steps to solve the problem:

4x-7 = x+14

3x=21

x=7

The value of x is 7!
