Answer:

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the angle bisector theorem, we would have the following:

(x + 8)/10 = (2x - 5)/14

Cross multiply

14(x + 8) = 10(2x - 5)

14x + 112 = 20x - 50

Collect like terms

14x - 20x = -112 - 50

-6x = -162

Divide both sides by -6

-6x/-6 = -162/-6

x = 27
