I believe that it is B. Hope this helps!
The area of a square is simply the side length squared and we are given that the area is 125 so:
s^2=125
s=√125
s=5√5
Now using the area equation again, and adding 1 inch to s we have:
A=(s+1)^2, and using s found above we have:
A=(5√5+1)^2
A=125+10√5+1
A=126+10√5 in^2
A≈148.36 in^2 (to nearest hundredth of a square inch)
2x=1
10x+2=7
subtract 2 from both sides
10x=5
divide 10 on both sides
x=1/2, 0.5, or 5/10
Use 1/2 to solve '2x'
2*(1/2)=1
