This problem is asking you to determine if the provided statements are sufficient to calculate the area of the rectangle depicted.

Step-by-step breakdown:

1. Diagram Layout:

   • The figure shows a rectangle divided into two smaller rectangles:
     • One with dimensions $6 \times z$.
     • The other with dimensions $x \times y$.

2. Objective:

   • We need to determine the area of the entire figure (which is the sum of the areas of the two rectangles).

   The total area of the figure is given by: $\text{Total Area} = (6 \times z) + (x \times y)$

3. Given Statements:

   • Statement (1): $x = 14$
   • Statement (2): $y = 35$

4. Analysis:

   • To find the total area, we need both $z$ and $y$. Knowing $x = 14$ helps with one part, but it doesn’t directly tell us $z$, the width of the first rectangle. Likewise, knowing $y = 35$ only gives us the height of the second rectangle but doesn’t directly help us with $z$ either.

   Let's assess each option:

   Option A:

   • Statement (1) alone is not sufficient, as we still don't know $z$, which is necessary to calculate the area of the first rectangle.
   • So, A is false.

   Option B:

   • Statement (2) alone is also insufficient because while it gives us $y$, we still need $z$ to calculate the total area.
   • So, B is false.

   Option C:

   • Both statements together give $x = 14$ and $y = 35$, but we still don’t know the value of $z$ to compute the area of the first rectangle.
   • Thus, C is false.

   Option D:

   • This suggests that either statement is sufficient alone, but we’ve already determined both statements alone are insufficient.
   • D is false.

   Option E:

   • Neither statement is sufficient on its own or together, because we still lack information about $z$.
   • Therefore, E is the correct answer.

Conclusion:

The correct answer is E. Neither statement alone nor together provides enough information to answer the question about the total area.
