Answer:

x = 9, y = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{x-1}{6} = \frac{16}{12} ( cross- multiply )

12(x - 1) = 96 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x - 1 = 8 ( add 1 to both sides )

x = 9

Also

\frac{y+1}{21} = \frac{16}{12} ( cross- multiply )

12(y + 1) = 336 ( divide both sides by 12 )

y + 1 = 28 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

y = 27
