Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angle at the vertex is bisected then the following ratio is true

[tex]\frac{32}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6x+6}{9x-9}[/tex], that is

[tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6x+6}{9x-9}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

4(9x - 9) = 3(6x + 6) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

36x - 36 = 18x + 18 ( subtract 18x from both sides )

18x - 36 = 18 ( add 36 to both sides )

18x = 54 ( divide both sides by 18 )

x = 3
