Answer:

7.2

option B is the right option.

Explanation:

Using leg rule


(bc)/(ab) = (ab)/(bd)

Plug the values:


(20)/(12) = (12)/(x)

Apply cross product property


20 * x = 12 * 12

Calculate the product


20x = 144

divide both sides of the equation by 20


(20x)/(20) = (144)/(20)

Calculate:


x = 7.2

hope this helps..

Good luck...
