This question is incomplete. Please find attached to this solved question, the diagram required to solve this question.
Answer:
11 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The shaded portion of the rectangle forms the shape of a trapezium
The area of a trapezium = 1/2(a + b)h
From the diagram, we can see than x = b
a = 7 units
b = 7 units
Area of the trapezium = Area of the shaded portion = 63 square units
A = 1/2(a + b)h
63 = 1/2(7 + b)7
63 = 1/2(49 + 7b)
63 × 2 = 49 + 7b
126 - 49 = 7b
7b = 77
b = 77/7
b = 11 units
Since x = b, x = 11 units
