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.

vladimir1956 [14]

The question asks for the rate of toys per hour.

So we shall divide the total toys assembled by the total hours.

Its a five day week.

The number of hours allotted per day are 8.

So total allotted during the week are 8 × 5 = 40 hours.

Number of toys made during the week are 400.

Hence the number of toys assembled per hour per person

= number of toys / number of hours

= 400 / 40

= 10 toys per hour per person.

The average number of toys assembled per hour per person is 10.
