Answer:  x = 7

Work Shown:

Since the diameter AB cuts chord EF in half, we can prove AB is perpendicular to EF. So we have a right angle forming at ACF.

angle ACF = 90 degrees

angle ACF = 2(7x-4)

2(7x-4) = 90

14x-8 = 90

14x-8+8 = 90+8 .... add 8 to both sides

14x = 98

14x/14 = 98/14 ... divide both sides by 14

x = 7

-----

If x = 7, then

2(7x-4) = 2*(7*7-4) = 2*(49-4) = 2*45 = 90

this confirms the answer

Answer:

Yes, 7 is the correct answer.
