Since we know that the 38 is being bisected (which we can tell by the fact that the line hits it perpendicularly), we know that from the intersection to the edge of the circle is 19. From this we can create a right triangle in which the legs are 10 and 19 and the hypotenuse is a radius of the circle. Since x is also a radius of the circle, all we have to do is use that information to find the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean Theorem and we have x.

Answer:
I have gotten 216/61, but I am not sure if this is right.
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the "Keep It, Change It, Flip It" tactic, I was able to come up with an answer and simplify it.
1. Keep the original divisor.
162/3
2. Change the sign.
Division becomes multiplication.
3. The last fraction is reciprocated.
61/4 becomes 4/61.
Answer:
x = 24/15 = 8/3 = 2 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
remember what you do to the left you must do to the right.
I converted the -5 to -15/3 so I could easily add or subtract
-5/3 x = -8/3
multiply both sides by -3/5 to cancel the coefficient of the x
x = -8/3 * -3/5 = 24/15
150 / 200 = 0.75
0.75 = 75%
150 of anything is 75% of 200 of the same thing.
