Answer:
(x, y) = (40, 30)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator can show you the solution to this system of equations is (x, y) = (40, 30). That is the point of intersection where the two lines cross.

An algebraic solution can be found by using the substitution method. An expression for y can be found using the second equation:
y = 110 -2x . . . . . . subtract 2x from both sides
Using this in the first equation gives ...
3x -4(110 -2x) = 0 . . . . substitute for y
11x = 440 . . . . . . . . . simplify, add 440
x = 40 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 11
y = 110 -2(40) = 30
The solution is (x, y) = (40, 30).
Let's find the perimeter first by adding all the side lengths together. There are two missing side lengths, which we can find by taking the side opposite them and subtract the side behind the missing side from them.
I've attached a diagram showing how to find the side lengths.
Now let's add all the side lengths together: 4 cm + 8 cm + 8 cm + 2 cm + 4 cm + 6 cm = 32 cm
The perimeter of this figure is 32 cm.

To find the area we can divide this figure into 2 rectangles. On the second attached diagram, I've split the figure into two and labeled the length and width of each rectangle.
Area of a rectangle = length * width
Area of red labeled rectangle = 4 cm * 2 cm = 8 cm²
Area of yellow labeled rectangle = 8 cm * 4 cm = 32 cm²
Add the two areas together: 8 + 32 = 40
The area of the figure is 40 cm².
