Greetings from Brasil

Let us call the distance AB of Y (in the problem nothing is said about this dimension, so lets call of Y).

From the attached drawing we can conclude that:

AB + BC = AC

where

AB = Y

BC = 2X + 4

AC = 24

then

AB + BC = AC

Y + (2X + 4) = 24

X = (20 - Y)/2

In my view this question is incomplete

What is the value of x if segment BC is 2x+4 and line Ac is 24-example-1
