x = 375 and y = 6300. Option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given data we need to find the value of x and y.
First, we will find out the ratio of area and the force.
[tex]\frac{Area}{Force} = \frac{125}{1875} =\frac{150}{2250} =\frac{175}{2625}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{15}[/tex]
So,
[tex]\frac{x}{5625} = \frac{1}{15}[/tex]
or, x = [tex]\frac{5625}{15}[/tex] = 375
Again,
[tex]\frac{420}{y} = \frac{1}{15}[/tex]
or, y = 420×15 = 6300
Hence,
x = 375 and y = 6300.
