Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

this figure involves two triangle and one rectangle

for area of rectangle= Length * Width = 16 * 8 = 128 feet^2

for area of one triangle = 1/2 * base * height = 1/2 * x *8 = 4x

for two triangles = 8x ft^2 total

whole area = two triangles + one rectangle

176 = 8x + 128

8x =48

x = 6
