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

3p + 34 = 90
3p = 90 - 34
3p = 56
p = 56/3
p = 18.67 (thats rounded)
2r + 44 = 76
2r = 76 - 44
2r = 32
r = 32/2
r = 16
53 + 6s = 1421
6s = 1421 - 53
6s = 1368
s = 1368/6
s = 228
" the product " means multiply
p x r x s = 18.67 x 16 x 228 = 68,108.16
