Answer: 13.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees, we know that in triangle UWV, [tex]m\angle U=50^{\circ}[/tex]. Thus, the triangles are similar by AA.
Since corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional,
[tex]\frac{x}{24}=\frac{20}{36}\\x=(20/36)(24)=\boxed{13.3}[/tex]
