Answer:

(C)3850 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle = x

3 times the width (x) =3x

Length of the rectangle = 3x+5

Area of a rectangle = Length x Width

Therefore:


y=x(3x+5)

When the width (x) = 35 inches


\begin{gathered} y=35(3*35+5) \\ =35(105+5) \\ =35*110 \\ =3850\text{ square inches} \end{gathered}
