Try different values until you get the one that matches.

You have \[\frac{11.5 + \frac{130}{x}}{2} \approx 11.4022\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where do I try different values

hero (hero):

If you don't want to try different values, you can also try solving for x.

hero (hero):

They give you answer choices for the possible value of x.

Those are the values you plug-in to x to test for the right approximation.
