Answer:

x = 9

Explanation:

Make 2 fractions, one for each triangle:

25 / 4x - 1 = 10 / x + 5

Cross multiply the denominator of one x the numerator of the other

25 (x + 5) = 10 (4x - 1)

Use the distributive property

25x + 125 = 40 x - 10

Subtract 25x from each side

125 = 15x - 10

Add 10 to each side

135 = 15x

Divide each side by 15

x = 9
