Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is based on Secant Secant theorem.

Secant Secant theorem gives us the following formula:

(AB + BD)AB = (AC + CE).AC

From the above question we have the following parameters

AB = 5

BD = x

AC = 7.5

CE = 4.5

Hence,

(AB + BD)AB = (AC + CE).AC

(5 + x)5 = (7.5 + 4.5)7.5

25 + 5x = 90

Collect like terms

5x = 90 - 25

5x = 65

x = 65/5

x = 13
