The solution to the variables are x = 7 and y = 4

How to determine the solution to the variables?

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

Shape = Triangle

The marks on the triangles imply that

  • The visibly smaller triangle is an equilateral triangle
  • The other triangle is an isosceles triangle

So, we have the following representation

3x - 5 = 5y - 4

3x - 5 = y + 12

Substitute 3x - 5 = y + 12 in 3x - 5 = 5y - 4

y + 12 = 5y - 4

Evaluate the like terms

4y = 16

So, we have

y = 4

Substitute y = 4 in 3x - 5 = y + 12

3x - 5 = 4 + 12

So, we have

3x = 21

This gives

x = 7

Hence, the values are x = 7 and y = 4
