Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these are similar triangles we can use ratios

24-15          x-25

----------- = -----------

24                     x

Using cross products

x ( 24-15) = 24 ( x-25)

9x = 24x -600

Subtract 24x from each side

-15x = -600

Divide by -15

-15x/-15 = -600/-15

x =40
