We can divide the figure into two rectangles, as shown below
Therefore,
[tex]A=A_{upper}+A_{lower}=(5x-3)(x+2)+(x+1)(3x-2)[/tex]
Simplify as shown below
[tex]\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow A=5x^2+7x-6+3x^2+x-2=8x^2+8x-8 \\ \Rightarrow A=8x^2+8x-8 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Thus, the answer is 8x^2+8x-8, option B
