A segment is only a "midsegment" if it connects midpoints. When labels above and below are 9 and 72, it is clearly not a midsegment. However, because it is parallel to the base, segments above and below on one side are proportional to those in similar positions on the other side.
72/9 = 56/(3x -20)
We can multiply by (3x -20)/8 to get
3x -20 = 7
3x = 27
x = 9
12/3 is 4 and .31/2 is -15.5
Answer:
The answer is probably 10.50

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
9 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the 4 in and 10 in. lines are parallel, the two triangles are similar.
As such, the ratio of the sides would give the same results.
Hence,
4/6 = 10/(6 + x)
cross multiplying
4(6 + x) = 60
Dividing both sides by 4
6 + x = 15
collecting like terms
x = 15 - 6
= 9
