Answer:

4cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

L=(2x+3)

W=(x-1)

P=28cm

A= L*W

A= (2x+3)*(x-1)

open bracket

A= 2x^2-2x+3x-3

collect like terms

A= 2x^2+x-3

P= 2L+2W

P= 2*(2x+3)+2(x-1)

P= 4x+6+2x-2

collect like terms

P= 6x-4

but p= 28

28= 6x-4

28-4= 6x

24= 6x

x= 24/6

x= 4cm

Hence x= 4cm
