What is the area of this figure?

a. 102
b. 132
c. 168
d. 340

The total area of the figure is the area of the square plus the area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle.
 area of the square: (6)*(6)=36cm^2
 area of the rectangle: (7)*(6)=42cm^2
 area of the triangle: (1/2)*(8)*(6)=24cm^2
 total area
 At=36+42+24=102cm^2

First subtract 10 from both side
y^2+6y-16=0
(y+8)(y-2)=0
