Answer:

x = 3, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{x}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1.5}{3}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

3x = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 3

and

[tex]\frac{y}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1.5}{3}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

3y = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 2
