    15x + 10.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find the area of a rectangle, recall the formula is A = l * w. Therefore:

    A = (3x + 2) (5)

    Distribute the '5':

    A = 15x + 10

    Therefore, the area of the rectangle of 15x + 10.

    15x+10 units ^2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The area of a rectangle can be found using:

    A = l * w

    The length of the rectangle is 3x+2 and the width is 5.

    l=3x+2

    w=5

    Substitute these values into the formula.

    A = 3x+2 * 5

    This can be rewritten as: (Commutative property of Multiplication)

    A = 5 * 3x+2

    A = 5 (3x+2)

    Distribute the 5. Multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number outside the parentheses.

    A = (5*3x) + (5*2)

    A = 15x + 10

    A = 15x+10 units^2

    The area of the rectangle is 15x+10 square units.
