Answer:

Area = 2(5x - 4) + 2(5x)

Explanation:

Perimeter is the sum of twice the width and twice the length of the rectangle. And since the question is asking us for an equation, we need to write, Area = 2(5x - 4) + 2(5x). When you are required to find the value of x with a given area, just plug that area into the equation, distribute, and simplify to get x.
