The calculated values of x and y are x = 14 and y = 7

How to determine the value of x and y

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The similar figures

The constant of proportion between the figures is calculated using

k = 10/8

So, we have

k = 5/4

Using the above as a guide, we have the following:

5/4(x + 2) = 15

5/4(y - 3) = 5

So, we have

x + 2 = 4/5 * 15

y - 3 = 4/5 * 5

Evaluate

x + 2 = 12

y - 3 = 4

This gives

x = 14 and y = 7

Hence, the values of x and y are x = 14 and y = 7
