2/3x-40=5/6(x+36)
multiply each side by 6 to get rid of the fraction
6* 2/3x- 6*40=6*5/6(x+36)
4x -240 = 5(x+36)
distribute
4x-240 = 5x +180
subtract 4x from each side
-240 = x +180
subtract 180 from each side
-420 =x

Answer:
53.33
Step-by-step explanation:
finding area of ΔPAM
using similar triangles

16 = 12x; x = 
ΔPAM = 4/3 * 4 * 1/2 = 16/6 = 8/3
ΔPAL = 4 * 12 * 1/2 = 24
24 + 8/3 = 80/3 (using fraction form for now, will round later)
since there are two ΔPLM (ΔLMU has same area since they are congruent)
we can multiply 80/3 by 2
80/3 * 2 = 160/3 = 53.33
