Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Side splitter theorem,

"If a line intersects two sides of a triangle and is parallel to the third side of the triangle, will divide the sides proportionally."

Therefore, ratio of the parts of two sides intersected will be proportional.

[tex]\frac{3}{15}= \frac{6}{x}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{6\times 15}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=30[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]x=30[/tex] will be the answer.
