Answer:
x=10, y=12.
Step-by-step explanation:
You are making all sides of the triangle smaller by a scale factor of 2/3, because 9*2/3=6. For x, we can do 2/3*15, which equals 10. For y, we can do 2/3*18, equalling 12.

Answer: The goal was $500
======================================================
Work Shown:
x% = x/100
175% = 175/100 = 1.75
Let g be the goal, which is the amount of money the club wanted to raise
175% of goal = 175% of g = 1.75g
The expression 1.75g represents how much money was actually raised, which was $875. Set the two expressions equal to each other. Solve for g
1.75g = 875
g = 875/1.75 ....... divide both sides by 1.75
g = 500
The club's goal was to raise $500
Note how 75% of $500 is 0.75*500 = 375
When they raised 175% of the goal, this means they went 75% overboard and added on 375 additional dollars (on top of the 500 they wanted). So they got to 500+375 = 875 which lines up with the instructions. This helps verify the answer.
Or we can see that 1.75*g = 1.75*500 = 875 which helps confirm the answer as well.
