[A] 3* + 12y* + 5y? +60y
[B] 60 + 5y + 12y +
(C) 60y + 5y? +12y + yo
[D] 2y +12y + 5y + 30y
b
ОООО
Choice [A]
Choice [B]
Choice (C)
Choice [D]
d

Answer 1

Answer:

Choice D

Step-by-step explanation:

The area can be found simply by multiplying the height by the base:

$(2y + 5)(y + 6)\\= 2y^2 + 12y + 5y + 30\\= 2y^2 + 17y + 30$

So answer D is the correct one (note that they do not group like terms, leaving 12y + 5y in that form instead of adding them together).
