Answer:

y = 1.75

x = 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles have equal angles, you can use ratios to solve for x and y.

For y:

[tex]\frac{8}{10} =\frac{7}{a} \\8a=70\\a=8.75[/tex]

Subtract 7 from a to find y.

y = 8.75 - 7

y = 1.75

For x:

[tex]\frac{8}{10} =\frac{5}{b} \\8b=50\\b=6.25[/tex]

Subtract 5 from b to find x.

x = 6.25 - 5

x = 1.25
