x, y - two integers

the product of two integers is 112

(1)      xy = 112

one number is four more then three times the other

(2)     y = 3x + 4             substitute it to (1)

x(3x + 4) = 112      use distributive property

(x)(3x) + (x)(4) = 112

3x² + 4x = 112

Answer: A. 3x^2+4x=112

The correct answers is Option (a) 3x^2+4x=112

How to solve the problem?

Let the two integers be x and y

the product of two integers is 112

That is x*y = 112

Now  one number is four more then three times the other

 y = 3x + 4    

Substitute the value to x*y = 112

x(3x+4)=112

= 3x^2+4x=112

Hence Option (A) is correct
