Question
## Consider the following figure:

### Diagram Description:
The diagram consists of three parallel vertical lines, labeled \( l_1, l_2, \) and \( l_3 \). Two horizontal lines intersect these vertical lines. The intersections form points labeled as follows:

- On the top horizontal line: \( A \) on \( l_1 \), \( B \) on \( l_2 \), and \( C \) on \( l_3 \).
- On the bottom horizontal line: \( D \) on \( l_1 \), \( E \) on \( l_2 \), and \( F \) on \( l_3 \).

### Given Data:
- \( l_1 \parallel l_2 \parallel l_3 \)
- \( AB = 2 \)
- \( BC = 3 \)
- \( DE = x \)
- \( EF = 12 - x \)

### Task:
Find the values of \( x, DE, \) and \( EF \).

### Solution:
The problem is asking you to find the values based on the given equations and relationships among the segments on these parallel lines.

### Fields to Fill:
- \( x = \) 
- \( DE = \) 
- \( EF = \)
