Now we have to,

→ solve for x

Then use a ratio to solve,

→ 2/11 = 3/3+x

Now see the further steps,

→ 2(3+x) = 3 × 11

→ 6+2x = 33

→ 2x = 33-6

→ 2x = 27

→ x = 27/2

→ x = 13.5

Hence, 13.5 is value of x.

Answer:

13.5

Explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

2 3

---- = ------

11 3+x

Using cross products

2(3+x) = 3*11

Distribute

6+2x = 33

Subtract 6

6+2x-6 = 33-6

2x = 27

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 27/2

x = 13.5
