Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of the three combined shapes, multiply the length times the width of each and add them together. Five times two is 10, and since there are two identical rectangles (the top and the bottom one), the current combined area is 20. Three times two is 6. 20 + 6 = 26.
Since the only two corresponding side you have are 10 units and 4 units, you can divide these two numbers to get the scale factor.
10÷4=2.5
next you find the sides corresponding to X Y and Z and if it is on the bigger figure you divide, if it is on the smaller side you multiply
X corresponds with 5 (so ×2.5)
Y corresponds with 8 (÷2.5)
Z corresponds with 10 (÷2.5)
final answer is X=12.5 Y=3.2 Z=4
