5×7 rectangle

5×12 rectangle

Answer 2

The answer is D. 155 square feet.

You can solve this by splitting the figure into three; the 5x12 rectangle on the left, the 5x7 rectangle in the middle, and the 5x12 rectangle on the right.

Find the area of each of the three shapes and add it all together so
12 x 5 = 60
7 x 5 = 35

60 + 60 + 35 = 155 square feet
