You can put this solution on YOUR website! .
x = 58,
by the definition of Median.
See the lesson

If the median of the data is 58, find the value of x.
X = MEDIAN = 58
How can one find "x" if you don't state what "x" represents?
I do hope that whatever knowledge of math you may have, you will have realized by now that: 
If that knowledge has led you to believe that X = x, then X = x = 58.
