I found an image that corresponds to the above question.
The shape was a rectangle. Its width is 7 units, its length is x.
The shaded area of the rectangle forms a trapezoid.
Area of a trapezoid = [(a+b)/2] * h
63 sq. units = (7+x)/2 * 7
63/7 = (7+x)/2
9 = (7+x)/2
9*2 = 7 + x
18 = 7 + x
18 - 7 = x
11 = x
The value of x is 11 units. It is the length of the rectangle.
Area of the trapezoid = (a+b)/2 * h
63 = (7+11)/2 * 7
63 = 18/2 * 7
63 = 9 * 7
63 = 63
Rewrite the given equation as

.
Since

, you can conclude that the imimum value of y will be gained for the minimum value of

. The minimum value of

is 0 for x=2.
So, y(2)=0+4=4.
Answer: minimum value of y is 4, when x=2.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length x width
area = 2 3/4 x 2/5
area = 1 1/10 feet :)
