Final answer:

To find the area of the rectangle, multiply the length and width together.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the rectangle, we need to multiply its length and width. The given length, AB, is 2x + 1 and the given width, AD, is 4x. Therefore, the area would be (2x + 1) * (4x) = 8x^2 + 4x.

2x+1=4x
2x-2x+1=4x-2x
1=2x
1/2=x

2(1/2)+1=2, so AB=2
4(1/2)=2, so AD=2

2×2=4

So the area of the rectangle is 4.
