What is the factorised form of \(x^2+14x+49\)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \((x+7)^2\)

The direct answer is A: \((x+7)^2\). Use the identity \((P+Q)^2=P^2+2PQ+Q^2\). In this expression, the first term is \(x^2\), so take \(P=x\). The constant term is \(49=7^2\), so take \(Q=7\). The middle term predicted by the identity is \(2(x)(7)=14x\), which matches. Hence \(x^2+14x+49=(x+7)^2\). Option B expands to \(x^2-14x+49\), so its middle sign is wrong. C expands to \(x^2+63x+686\), not the given expression. D expands to \(x^2+14x+45\), where the constant term is wrong. A useful check is to take the square roots of the first and last terms and verify twice their product as the middle term.
