If a rectangle is made with sides (3x+2) and (3x-2), which area is obtained?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 9x^2-4

The direct answer is D. The rectangle’s area is the product of its side lengths: (3x+2)(3x-2). The factors have the form (a+b)(a-b), where a=3x and b=2. By the difference-of-squares identity, (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2. Therefore the area is (3x)^2-2^2=9x^2-4. Direct multiplication gives 9x^2-6x+6x-4; the two middle terms cancel, giving the same answer. A incorrectly adds the squares. B is (3x-2)^2, and C is (3x+2)^2; both square only one side instead of multiplying the two different sides. D correctly uses the conjugate pair. Memory cue: equal first parts and opposite second signs mean “square the first, subtract the square of the second.”
