Answer:
x = 11.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Side- Splitter Corollary
If three or more parallel lines are intersected by two or more transversals, the parallel lines divide the transversals proportionally.
That is
[tex]\frac{8}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{7}[/tex] ( cross multiply )
5x = 56 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 11.2
