Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

In a circle if two chord intersects as shown in figure

and length of a chord at point of intersection is a and b

and  length of another  chord at point of intersection is c and b

a*b = c*d

using this relation here, we have

8*(x+7) = 10 * (4 +x)

=> 8x + 56 = 40 + 10x

subtracting 40  and 8x from both sides

=>8x + 56  - 8x -40= 40 + 10x -8x -40

=> 16 = 2x

=> x = 16/2 = 8

Thus, x = 8
