First of all, you would use the FOIL method for -5(a + 3). This means to just multiply -5 to all of the values in the parenthesis. This would equal:
-5a -15 = -55
Then after, you would add 15 for both sides and get -5a = -40
Divide by -5 on both sides, you get a = 8.

Ok so the value of x is 6 those lines on the 6 and x lines means that they are congruent. Then to figure out y you would use Pythagorean theorem 6^2+6^2
36+36=72
Square root 72 is about 8.5
8.5 would be y. Let me know if this is right and if this helps
