Answer:

A = 54.8 - (1200/x) - 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x the wide and y the height, we have

x*y = 50

⇒  y = 50/x

The area of the printed region is A = w*h

where

Wide: w = (x-2*1.2) = x-2.4

Height: h= (y-2*1) = y-2

then

A = (x-2.4)(y-2) = xy - 2.4y - 2x + 4.8 = 50 - 24*(50/x) - 2x + 4.8

⇒  A = 54.8 - (1200/x) - 2x
