The correct Answer is A. x^2 + 12x + 27


Width of floor = w = x

Length of floor = l = x + 6

New dimesions are increase by three so our

W = x + 3

L = x + 6 + 3  =>   L = x + 9

As we know that Area = width*length so

area = W * L

        = (x + 3)*(x + 9)

        = x∧2 + 9x + 3x + 27

        = x∧2 + 12x + 27

Which is our option A.
