Well, to solve, you would subtract 8 from both sides, which means x would end up equaling 32.
X=32
The answer is A. If there are 3 thirds (1/3s) per yard and there are 6 yards, 3*6=18. Because the last cut will make two 1/3-yard segments, the answer is 17 cuts and not 18.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The figure of a triangle.
To find:
The missing length.
Solution:
Let x be the missing length.
Basic proportionality theorem(BPT): According to this theorem, if a line is parallel to the one side of a triangle then that the line intersects the other two sides of the triangle in the same ratio.
Using Basic proportionality theorem, we get




Adding x on both sides, we get




The missing length is 3 Therefore, the correct option is D.
