Answer: 9x+36

Explanation:

Area=length times width which would be length: 3/4x+3 times width which is 12.

12 times 3/4x is 9x

Then you need to do the same for 12 times 3 which is 36.

So I believe it is 9x+36.

Answer: The correct answer is 9x+36

Explanation:

Area of the rectangle:

short side: 12

long side: 3/4x + 3

area = 12 * (3/4x + 3)

area = 12*3/4x + 12*3

area = 36/4x +36

area = 9x + 36
