Ah hah ! NOW I see it. Thanks to BellBell for a good link.
My first impression is a dog bone standing up on one end.
You're talking about the area of the figure, so I'll think that over
before I look at the choices.
I see:
-- 2 semi-circles = 1 whole circle.
and
-- (1 rectangle) minus (a trapezoid).
Now I'll look through the choices.
A). No good. The trapezoid is cut OUT of the figure,
and shouldn't be added into it.
B). Oh ! Yes ! I didn't look at it that way at first, but
I can see how that works. 'B' is good.
C). and D). Yes. This was my description above.
So 'A' is the method that's wrong.

Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
A rhombus is a parallelogram where all sides are equal. Therefore, as we know two sides are equal to 7x+8 and 9x-6, we can say that
7x+8 = 9x - 6
subtract 7x from both sides to put the variable on one side
2x - 6 = 8
add 6 to both sides to isolate the variable and its coefficient
2x = 14
divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
x = 7
