What is the value of X enter your answer in the box

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment in the triangle bisects ∠ BAC and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other 2 sides , that is

= ( cross- multiply )

10(2x - 5) = 14(x + 8) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

20x - 50 = 14x + 112 ( subtract 14x from both sides )

6x - 50 = 112 ( add 50 to both sides )

6x = 162 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 27
