To solve this problem you must apply a theorem called: Intersecting secant theorem. The proccedure is shown below:

 1) For the figure shown on the left:

 (5)(x+5)=(6)(4+6)
 5x+25=60
 5x=60-25
 x=35/5
 x=7

 
2) For the figure shown on the right:

 (3)(3+5)=(4)(x+4)
 24=4x+16
 24-16=4x
 8=4x
 8/4=x
 x=2
