A square model shows x²−6x+9. It is the area of a square with which side?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: x−3

Direct answer: B, x−3. Compare the expression with the identity (a−b)²=a²−2ab+b². Taking a=x and b=3 gives (x−3)²=x²−2(x)(3)+3²=x²−6x+9. Thus the displayed area belongs to a square with side x−3. Multiplication verifies the result: (x−3)(x−3)=x²−3x−3x+9=x²−6x+9. A, x+3, would give x²+6x+9, so its middle term has the wrong sign. C, x−6, would give x²−12x+36, with both the middle coefficient and constant term wrong. D, x+9, would give x²+18x+81, which is also different. The constant 9 identifies 3², while the negative middle term tells us that 3 is subtracted rather than added. Memory cue: for a perfect square, the sign of the middle term determines the sign inside the binomial.
