Answer:

BC = 144 units

Explanation:

It is given a line segment BC.

D is the point on the line segment.

To find the length of BC

BC = 8x

CD = 3x + 8 and BD = 4x + 10

BC = CD + BD

8x = 3x + 8 + 4x + 10

8x = 7x + 18

x = 18

BC = 8x = 8 * 18 = 144 units

Therefore the length of segment BC = 144 units
