Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the rule is: AP*BP=CP*DP;

2) according to the rule above:

21*2x=27(x+5); ⇔ 42x=27x+135; ⇔ 15x=135; ⇔ x=9.

3) Finally, C: 9.

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

AP × BP = CP × DP

21*2x=27(x+5)      {21*2x = 42x}

42x=27x+135       {27 * 5 = 135}

15x=135

Divide both sides by 15

15x/15 = 135/15

x=9.
