Answer:


A=\text{ 551 square feet}

Explanation:

The diagram that represents the office would be:

If the area of a rectangle is given as:


A=\text{ base}\cdot\text{ height}

The polynomial that represents the area would be:


\begin{gathered} A=(2x+5)(x+7) \\ A=2x^2+14x+5x+35 \\ A=2x^2+19x+35 \end{gathered}

Substitute x=12 and find the area:


\begin{gathered} A=2(12)^2+19(12)+35 \\ A=\text{ 551 square feet} \end{gathered}
