If \(7\times9\) is viewed as \((8-1)(8+1)\) in a visual model, what is its value?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 63

The direct answer is B: 63. Notice that 7 is \(8-1\) and 9 is \(8+1\). Therefore \(7 imes9=(8-1)(8+1)\). Apply the identity \((u-v)(u+v)=u^2-v^2\): \(8^2-1^2=64-1=63\). Direct multiplication also confirms it: \(7 imes9=63\). A is wrong because it is two less than the correct value and does not follow from the identity. C is only \(8^2\); it forgets to subtract \(1^2\). D adds 1 instead of subtracting it from \(8^2\). The visual model shows two areas around the central square, and their product is one less than the square of the central number when the offsets are 1. Memory cue: numbers equally spaced around \(n\), namely \(n-1\) and \(n+1\), multiply to \(n^2-1\).
