best answer
The correct answer is 119 square inches.
Given that the height of the rectangle is 7 inches and the length is 10 inches longer than the height, the length would be 7+10 = 17 inches.
Therefore, using the formula for the area of a rectangle (Area = length x height), the area of the rectangle would be 17 inches x 7 inches = 119 square inches.
