Answer:
24 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use proportions to solve this problem. Put the small triangle side over the large triangle side.
44.8 x+4
------------- = -----------
56 35
Using cross products
44.8 (35) = 56(x+4)
Distribute
1568 = 56x+224
Subtract 224 from each side
1568-224 = 56x+224-224
1344 = 56x
Divide by 56
1344/56 = 56x/56
24 =x
