The area <em>A</em> of a trapezoid with height <em>h</em> and bases <em>b</em>₁ and <em>b</em>₂ is equal to the average of the bases times the height:

<em>A</em> = (<em>b</em>₁ + <em>b</em>₂) <em>h</em> / 2

We're given <em>A</em> = 864, <em>h</em> = 24, and one of the bases has length 30, so

864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 24 / 2

864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 12

864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 12

72 = <em>b</em>₁ + 30

<em>b</em>₁ = 42

Factor −1/2−1/2 out of −1/2x+6.
pochemuha
That's unusual:  repetition:  -1/2 - 1/2.

Did you perhaps mean "Factor -1/2 out of (-1/2)x + 6?

Let's do that.  Let's rewrite 6 as (-1/2)(-12).

Then (-1/2)x + 6       (-1/2)x -(1/2)(-12)
         --------------  =  ------------------------  = x - 1/2
             -1/2                     -1/2

Hope that's what you wanted.  If not, please try to apply a similar approach to solving this particular problem.
