Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
If a line is parallel to a side of a triangle and it intersects the other two sides, it divides those sides proportionally.
The line here is parallel to a side of the triangle and it intersects the other two sides, then
[tex]\frac{x}{32}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{24}[/tex] ( cross multiply )
24x = 32 × 9 = 288 ( divide both sides by 24 )
x = 12
