The answer is -8 I believe.

To put this into an equation, we get 7x-x=-48. This is equal to 6x=-48. When we divide we get -8.

To be considered similar triangles, the angles must be the exact same, and the sides must be proportional. The side lengths do not have to be exactly the same, but they must be proportional (like a ratio, suppose one triangle has a side length of 1, and the similar triangle has a side length of 3. The ratio is 1:3, and all sides will follow this ratio.)
