The correct answer is

41

41 is correct.

A square root equation is solved by simplifying the known side first and then squaring both sides to remove the root.

First simplify the right side: \(\sqrt{81}=9\), so \(\sqrt{40+9}=\sqrt{49}=7\).

Now \(\sqrt{90-x}=7\). Squaring both sides gives \(90-x=49\).

Therefore \(x=90-49=41\).
