You could use the substitution method. in this you’ll solve one equation for one variable. we’ll do the first one for y.
add 3x to both sides, so y = 3x + 2
then add that into the other equation for y.
7x - 8(3x +2) = 1
7x- 24x - 16 = 1
-17x - 16 = 1
-17x = 17
x= -1
now that you know what x is, you can find out y with the equation we made earlier. y = 3x+2
y = 3(-1) + 2
y = -3 + 2
y = -1

Ummmm that’s a triangle but I guess I’ll solve for both 7x7= 49/2= 24.5 triangle. Polygon is different but I guess if the perimeter and line to the center is both 7 okay 7x5= 35x7= 245/2= 122.5 cause triangle is wxL /2 and polygon is AxP/2 soooo I hope this helped

Well, you lost the original $100 and then you gained back $70 but gave away $70 worth of merchandise, so it evens out and you lost $100 in total
