consider the distance the two waves travel to get to x: 5 meters for the top speaker and 4 for the bottom. this means the top wave will lag 1 meter behind the bottom one. now, if a wave is shifted an entire wavelength from another, that's equivalent to not being shifted at all (do you see why?). if its shifted a half wavelength, then the peaks of one wave will line up with the troughs of the other, and vice verse, so they perfectly cancel out. do you see why 1 m waves would double here, and 2 m waves would cancel?
