I got area=41.7 m
Step by step:
Find A; 6x4 =24
Find B; you have to subtract 2 from 3.8 to find the length of the dashed line. 1.8x3.5=6.3
Find C; 3.8x3=11.4.
Add together; 11.4+6.3+27=41.7
I do not know for sure but im almost 100% sure that the answer is y=97 and x=1.08 i hope that is correct and that it helps you out.
You are asked to find the missing value in
... 40 + ? = 70
given that it is also the solution to
... ? + 5 = 35
Either way, you subtract the constant that is on the same side of the equation as the unknown.
... 40 + ? - 40 = 70 - 40
... ? = 30 . . . . the missing value
_____
You can check to see if this also satisfies the equation
... 30 + 5 = 35 . . . . . . . true
