So here is how you solve the given problem.
Let x be the original width. 
The original length is x + 2.
The new length is (x + 2) + 5 so it is x + 7.
A = L x W
60 = (x + 7) (x)
60 = x2 + 7x
x2 + 7x - 60 = 0
Therefore, x would be equivalent to 5.
Original Area = x (x + 2)
        A = 5 (5 + 2)
       A = 35 ft.
Therefore, the answer would be 35 feet, the third option. Hope this answer helps.

I am assuming that you meant 25ft^2, 35ft^2, and 30ft^2, as I had the same question.  Therefore, the answer is 35 ft^2.

Katyanochek1 [597]
First find the volume of the pipe:

V = 3.14*length*(outsideradius^2 - innerradius^2)
= 3.14 * 10*(2.5^2 - 2^2)
= 70.65 cm^3

Now find the mass using the formula density = mass / volume:

Mass = volume * density
= 70.65 cm^3 * 0.92g/cm^3
= 65 grams
