This would be so easy for you to solve, in about 3 minutes with a calculator.
A fraction means division ... (the top number) divided by (the bottom number).
Take the fraction part of each choice, do the division for each one,
and see which one gives you 0.4545... repeating.
A). 227/500 = 0.454 That's not 0.45 repeating.
B). 9/20 = 0.45 That's not 0.45 repeating.
C). 5/11 = 0.4545... THAT's 0.4545... repeating !
D). 9/2 = 4.5 That's not 0.45 repeating.
A) x * y = 12
B) x + y = -7
A) x = 12 / y
Substitute this into B
B) 12/y + y = -7
multiplying both sides by "y"
12 + y^2 = -7y
y^2 + 7y + 12 = 0
y = -4
and from equation B we calculate x as -3

Answer: 51 square inches</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
There are a few ways to do this. One way is to divide the figure as shown in the diagram below. I divided it into a rectangle and a triangle. Find the area of the rectangle and triangle, then add up those areas to get the final answer.
A = area of rectangle
A = length*width
A = 7*6
A = 42
B = area of triangle
B = 0.5*base*height
B = 0.5*(6-3)*(13-7)
B = 0.5*3*6
B = 1.5*6
B = 9
C = total area
C = A+B
C = 42+9
C = 51 square inches
The square root of Pi is approximately 1.77245.
