Step-by-step explanation

We can affirm by the triangle midsegment theorem that the segment DF is half of the segment BC, therefore:


DF=(1)/(2)BC

Plugging in the terms into the expression:


(4x-3)=(1)/(2)(6(x+1))

Applying the distributive property and removing the parentheses:


4x-3=3x+3

Subtracting -3x to both sides:


4x-3x-3=3

Subtracting terms:


x-3=3

Adding +3 to both sides:


x=3+3

Adding numbers:


x=6

In conclusion, the value of x is 6
