Answer:
28 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of rectangle = L
Breadth of rectangle = B
According to question
L = 3B - 5 ....(1)
and
Perimeter = 22 metre
2(L + B) = 22
From equation (1)
2(3B - 5 + B) = 22
2(4B - 5) = 22
4B - 5 = 22/2
4B - 5 = 11
4B = 16
B = 16/4
B = 4 m
If B = 4 m then from equation (1)
L = 3B - 5
= (3 × 4) - 5
= 12 - 5
= 7 m
Area of rectangle
A = LB
= 7 m × 4 m
= 28 m²
