A film set designer is using white and colored tiles in a pattern to create paths of different lengths. If x is the length of the path in feet, the number of colored tiles needed to make it is calculated using the rule
(8x^2y^2)(3xy)

Which simplified expression represents the number of colored tiles used for a path of length x feet?

24x^3y^3
11x^3y^3
24x^2y^2
11x^2y^2
