Ok break it down, step by step.

You are told that the snail travels at a rate of 2.35 feet per minute. That is the distance for only one minute. In order to get the distance of additional minutes (t, variable for time), you would take 2.35 and multiply it by how many minutes there are.

You are told there are five minutes in total.

The formula would be 2.34(t) with a total of 11.75 feet.

TL;DR ... Answer is [D]
