Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{A.\ 3\dfrac{1}{3}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The segments are in proportion:

[tex]\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{4}{6}[/tex]               cross multiply

[tex]6x=(5)(4)[/tex]

[tex]6x=20[/tex]      divide both sides by 6

[tex]x=\dfrac{20}{6}\\\\x=\dfrac{10}{3}\\\\x=3\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
