(D) Let the breadth of the plot be $x \ m$.
According to the problem,the length of the plot is $(2x + 1) \ m$.
We know that the area of a rectangle is given by the formula: $\text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Breadth}$.
Substituting the given values,we get: $528 = x(2x + 1)$.
Expanding the equation: $528 = 2x^{2} + x$.
Rearranging the terms to form a standard quadratic equation $ax^{2} + bx + c = 0$,we get: $2x^{2} + x - 528 = 0$.
