Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that BE is parallel to CD and intersects the 2 other sides, then it divides the 2 sides in proportion, that is

[tex]\frac{AB}{BC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AE}{ED}[/tex], substitute values

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

8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 7.5
