Answer:
x= 15 and y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by finding y first using the basic proportionality
- [tex]\frac{12}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{18}{6}[/tex]
- 12*6 = 18y
- 72 = 18y
- y = 72/18
- y= 4
now time to find x using the same way:
- [tex]\frac{12}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex]
- [tex]\frac{12}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex]
- 3 = [tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex]
- x = 3*5
- x= 15
