Answer:

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for complete question

From the attachment, the parallelogram has two diagonals. And the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect one another.

Because 2x - 1 and 7 are opposite sides of a diagonal; We can say that:

[tex]2x - 1= 7[/tex]

Add 1 to both sides

[tex]2x - 1 + 1 = 7 + 1[/tex]

[tex]2x = 8[/tex]

Divide through by 2

[tex]x = 4[/tex]
