is not very specific above, but sounds like it's asking for an equation for the trapezoid only, mind you, there are square tiles too.
but let's do the trapezoid area then,

The solution to this system is (x, y) = (8, -22).
The y-values get closer together by 2 units for each 2-unit increase in x. The difference at x=2 is 6, so we expect the difference in y-values to be zero when we increase x by 6 (from 2 to 8).
You can extend each table after the same pattern.
In table 1, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 8.
In table 2, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 6.
The attachment shows the tables extended to x=10. We note that the y-values are the same (-22) for x=8 (as we predicted above). That means the solution is ...
... (x, y) = (8, -22)
