Cancel mom please help me with this I’m stuck and I don’t know how to do this

Answer 1

20

Explanation:

The triangles are similar so we can use ratios

8 32

--- = -----

8+5 32+x

Using cross products

8(32+x) = 32(13)

Divide each side by 8

(32+x) = 32(13)/8

32+x = 4*13

32+x =52

Subtract 32

x = 20
