Okay, take a look at diagram 1 (I know it's rubbish I did it on paint :D), this shows all the information you've given in the question. The two coordinates and the distance between them.

Now if we draw additional lines on this diagram, we can make a right-angled triangle (this is on diagram 2). We can also work out the lengths of the additional sides because we know both coordinates at the end-points of the additional lines.

Finally because this is a right-angled triangle, Pythagoras' theorem must apply to its sides meaning
( \sqrt{10} )^2 = (x-4)^2 + 3^2
10 = (x-4)^2 + 9
(x-4)^2 = 1 \Rightarrow x-4 = 1
therefore x=5.
