The correct answer is 17.5.

Because they share a common angle at the top, we know that we can create a proportion using similar sides.

[tex] \frac{Outside LEFT}{Bottom LEFT} = \frac{Outside RIGHT}{Bottom RIGHT} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{16}{10} = \frac{28}{x} [/tex]

Now we can cross multiply to solve.

28*10 = 16*x

280 = 16x

17.5 = x
