ANSWER

A) 7

EXPLANATION

The given triangles are similar

Hence the corresponding sides are in the same proportion.

[tex] \frac{3x + 4}{30} = \frac{30}{36} [/tex]

Simplify the right hand side:

[tex]\frac{3x + 4}{30} = \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Cross multiply;

6(3x+4)=5×30

Expand

18x+24=180

18x=150-24

18x=126

[tex]x = \frac{126}{18} = 7[/tex]
