As division is the inverse of multiplication, the rules for division are the same as the rules for multiplication. So when multiplying and dividing positive and negative numbers remember this: If the signs are the same the answer is positive, if the signs are different the answer is negative.
Actually, yes, it is possible for two different numbers to give the same result when squared.
In my last answer, I wrote that it wasn't, but I realize now where my mistake was made.
When a number like positive 4 is squared, the answer is 16. When a number like negative 4 is squared, the answer is also 16. I think that the only time when two different squared numbers have the same result is when they are the same number but have a different positive/negative sign.
I hope this helps.
The numbers are unclear, please repost.
Thanks!

Answer:
32 units squared
Step-by-step explanation:
This is kind of a weird shape, so split it into smaller shapes, in this case two triangles and a rectangle.
Both of the triangles have a base of 8 and a height of 2. Multiply the base and the height together, then divide by 2. 8*2/2 equals 8, so the area of each triangle is 8.
For the rectangle, the length is 2, and the width is 8. Multiply the length and the width together to get 16.
Finally, add the areas of all those smaller shapes together to get the area of the whole shape, 32 units squared.
Y=-4
This line also is equals Zero, if that makes any sense lol but y= -4 is the correct equation.
