Answer:
x = 9, y = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
12(x - 1) = 96 ( divide both sides by 12 )
x - 1 = 8 ( add 1 to both sides )
x = 9
Also
=
( cross- multiply )
12(y + 1) = 336 ( divide both sides by 12 )
y + 1 = 28 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
y = 27
