This question is based on parallel lines proportionality that states if three or more lines intersect two traversals, then they cut the traversals proportionally.

In this case, the formula becomes:

[tex]\frac{DE}{EF}=\frac{LM}{MN}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2x}{3x-5}=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

[tex]10x=12x-20[/tex]

[tex]2x=20[/tex]

[tex]x=10[/tex]

The value of x = 10

To find the proportions or DE and EF,

DE = 2x = 2*10=20

EF = 3x-5 = 30-5 = 25

If we find DE/EF, it becomes 20/25 or 4/5
