Answer:
y = 3.6
x = 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar.
[tex]\frac{3}{2.4} = \frac{x}{2.8} = \frac{4.5}{y}[/tex]
Find y:
[tex]\frac{4.5}{y} = \frac{5}{4}[/tex]
[tex]4.5 * 4 = 5y => 18 = 5y => y = 3.6[/tex]
Find x:
[tex]\frac{x}{2.8} = \frac{5}{4}[/tex]
[tex]2.8 * 5 = 4x => 14 = 4x => x = 3.5[/tex]
