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.

Please Help. Find the area. Thank you
Andru [333]

Answer:

432 yd squared

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a parallelogram. The area of a parallelogram is denoted by: A = bh, where b is the base and h is the height. Here, the base is b = 19 1/5 and the height is h = 22 1/2. Plug these in:

A = bh = (19 1/5) * (22 1/2)

To make this simpler, let's convert the numbers into decimals. 1/5 is just 0.2 so 19 1/5 is 19.2. 1/2 is just 0.5, so 22 1/2 is 22.5. Now we have:

A = 19.2 * 22.5 = 432

Thus the area is 432 yd squared.

Hope this helps!

A rectangle has 3 square feet and width 1/2 foot. What is the length of the rectangle
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

We Know, Area = Length * Width

Here, A = 3

W = 1/2

Substitute it into the expression,

3 = L * 1/2

L = 3/ 1/2

L = 3/2 ft²

So, the length of the rectangle would be 3/2 ft²

<u>Hope this helps! :)</u>
