The value of x from the given equation is 5/3
<h3>How to determine the value</h3>
Since the three points are collinear to U, they are on a straight line which equals 0
Then we have,
UM + UD = MD
5x+30 + 10x+20 = 3x+80
Collect like terms
5x + 10x + 50 = 3x + 80
15x - 3x = 80 - 50
12x = 30
x = 30/12 = 15/6 = 5/3
Thus, the value of x from the given equation is 5/3

Answer:
X= -12 +6√10
X= 6.973
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the box= (36-2x)(24-2x)x
Volume of the box
=( 864 -96x -4x²)x
But 864 -96x -4x²
=216 - 24x-x²
Solving for x quadratically
X= (24+12√10)/-2
X= -12 -6√10
X= -30.97
Or
X= (24-12√10)/-2
X= -12 +6√10
X= 6.973
X will definitely be a positive number
So X= -12 +6√10
X= 6.973
