Answer:

57 cm²

Step-by-step explanation

<em>l = length</em>

<em>w = width</em>

<em>p = perimeter</em>

<em />

<em>(5x - 1) = length</em>

<em>(11 - 2x) = width</em>

<em>44 = perimeter</em>

<em />

<em>Formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:</em>

<em>l + l + w + w</em>

<em>2l + 2w = p</em>

<em />

<em>Substitute the variables for the length and width with the values given to you by the problem, then solve.</em>

<em></em>

<em>2(5x - 1) + 2(11 - 2x) = 44</em>

<em>(10x - 2) + (22 - 4x) = 44 (Distributive property)</em>

6x + 20 = 44

6x = 24

x = 4

<em>Plug x = 4 back into the length and width.</em>

Length = (5x - 1), (5(4) - 1), (19)

Width =  (11 - 2x), (11 - 2(4)), (3)

<em>Area for a rectangle: Length × Width = Area.</em>

<em>19 × 3 = 57 cm²</em>

<em>This is all in cm so answer with cm²</em>
