Answer:
D. 12(2x − 3) > 60
Explanation:
Area of rectangle = length x width
The length of the rectangle is 12 feet, and the width is (2x - 3) feet.
Area = 12 x (2x - 3)
= 12(2x - 3)
From the given question,
area of rectangle > 60 square feet
So that;
12(2x - 3) > 60
24x - 36 > 60
24x > 60 + 36
24x > 96
Divide both sides by 24, to have;
=
x > 4
Therefore,
width = (2x -3)
since x > 4, then;
width > (2x4 - 3)
> 8 -3
width > 5 feet
Thus,
length x width > 60
