Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A line parallel to a side of a triangle and intersecting the other 2 sides, divides those sides proportionally, that is

[tex]\frac{8}{10}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{x}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = [tex]\frac{60}{8}[/tex] = 7.5
