Answer:

x = 4

Explanation:

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


(10-x)/(x) =
(3)/(2) ( cross- multiply )

3x = 2(10 - x)

3x = 20 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )

5x = 20 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 4
