Answer:
The value of x is: 28
The value of y is: 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us solve the question
∵ [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] (x - 12) = 12 ⇒ (1)
→ Multiply each term in the bracket by [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
∴  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] (x) -  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] (12) = 12
∴  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x - 9 = 12
→ Add 9 to each side
∵  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x - 9 + 9 = 12 + 9
∴  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x = 21
→ Divide both sides by  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]  to find x
∴ x = 28
∵ [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] y - 12 = 12 ⇒ (2)
→ Add 12 to both sides
∴  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] y - 12 + 12 = 12 + 12
∴  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] y = 24
→ Divide both sides by  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] to find y
∴ y = 32
