Answer:

The value of x is [tex]15\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The centroid is the point where all 3 medians intersect. The centroid divides each median in a ratio of 2:1

so

In this problem

[tex]BD=\frac{2}{3}BF[/tex]

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we have

[tex]BD=2x+30[/tex]

[tex]BF=6x[/tex]

substitute the values

[tex]2x+30=\frac{2}{3}(6x)[/tex]

[tex]2x+30=4x[/tex]

[tex]4x-2x=30[/tex]

[tex]2x=30[/tex]

[tex]x=15\ units[/tex]

The calculated value of x, using the information given is 15 units.

From the diagram given :

BD = [tex]\frac{2}{3} [/tex] BF

  • BD =2x + 30
  • BF = 6x

Equate the expressions thus:

2x + 30 = 2/3(6x)

2x + 30 = 4x

Collect like terms

2x - 4x = - 30

-2x = - 30

Divide both sides by - 2

x = 15

Hence, x = 15 units
