Answer:
x=11
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the lines in the middle are parallel, we know that both sides are proportional to each other.
6:48 can be simplified to 1:8
Since we know the left side ratio is 1:8, we need to match the right side with the same ratio
We can multiply the ratio by 5 to match 5:3x+7
5:40
5:3x+7
Now we can set up the equation: 40=3x+7
Subtract 7 from both sides
3x=33
x=11
X= 12
Add three on both sides to get rid of it
9+3 and -3 + 3 the three is negative because you drop the minus sign down
This cancels out the three and 9+3 is 12 so X=12
