Detailed Solution

A(6,3),B(3,5),C(4,2)

Area of ΔABC=12|6(5+2)+(3)(23)+4(35)|

=12|6(7)3(5)+4(2)|

=12|42+158|

=12|49|

Area of ΔDBC,

D(x,3x),B(3,5),C(4,2)

Area of ΔDBC=12|x(5+2)3(23x)+4(3x5)|

=12|7x+6+9x+12x20|

=12|28x14|

=|14x7|

Area of ΔABC= 2 Area of ΔDBC

|49|2=2|14x7|

49=4(14x7)

49=56x28

49+28=56x

49+28=56x

7756=x

x=118
