Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\red{100 \: \: {yd} ^{2}}} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
width = x
length = 4x
so,
perimeter of a rectangle
[tex] p= 2(l + w) \\ 50yd = 2(4x + x) \\ 50yd= 2(5x) \\ 50yd= 10x \\ \frac{50yd}{10} = \frac{10x}{10} \\ x = 5 \: \: yd[/tex]
So, in this rectangle,
width = 5 yd
length = 4x
= 4*5
= 20yd
Now, let's find the area of this rectangle
[tex]area = l \times w \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 20 \times 5 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 100 {yd}^{2} [/tex]
