Answer:

x = 8 and y = 18, and the scale factor is 3/2

Explanation:

Because we have two complete pairs in the similar trapezoids, we can find the scale factor as 3/2, or 36/24 or 24/16.

To find the missing values of x and y, we just make the equations to get 3x/2 = 12 and 12 * 3/2 = y. This means x = 8 and y = 18.
