Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is shown in the attachment.
The length of the rectangle is x + 12. The width of the rectangle is x + 3.
Recall that area of a rectangle is 
In terms of x, the area is 
Recall the distributive property of real numbers: 
We apply this property to get:
We expand again to get:
We now simplify to obtain:
The area of the rectangle is
Option A would be your answer. We know 71 is the product. We also know that Sues age is one year less than half her mothers age. -1 comes from the problem saying one year less. We can already eliminate the other 3 options at this point.
The equation is saying 
. We can use algebra to subtract 3 from both sides to create 
.
Therefore, the value t is greater or equal to 18.
