    Answer:

      a) w = 8; y = 5.25

      b) x = 10; z = 7.2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a) Dimensions on the smaller figure are FA/F'A' = 3/4 times those on the larger figure.

      6 = (3/4)w

      w = 24/3 = 8

      y = (3/4)·7 = 21/4 = 5.25

    __

    b) Dimensions on the smaller figure are ER/E'R' = 9/15 = 3/5 times those on the larger figure.

      6 = (3/5)x

      x = 30/3 = 10

      z = (3/5)12 = 36/5 = 7.2
