The value of x in the given figure is 10.5 so, option B.) 10.5 units is correct.
What is the ratio of two quantities?
Suppose that we've got two quantities with measurements as 'a' and 'b'
Then, their ratio(ratio of a to b) a:b
or
[tex]\dfrac{a}{b}[/tex]
Remember that the ratio should always be taken of quantities with same unit of measurement. Also, ratio is a unitless(no units) quantity.
Using ratios;
AE/AD = AB/AC
14/18 = x/(x+3).
14x+42 = 18x
42 = 4x
x = 10.5
Thus, option B.) 10.5 units is correct.
