In a model, the remaining area (x²−25) is shown by the rectangle (x+5)(x−5). If x=12, what is the area of the visual rectangle?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 119

The direct answer is A: 119. Substitute x=12 into the two side lengths of the visual rectangle. The first side is x+5=12+5=17, and the second side is x−5=12−5=7. Rectangle area equals length times width, so the area is 17×7=119. The same result comes from the difference-of-squares identity x²−25=x²−5²=(x+5)(x−5): 12²−25=144−25=119. B is only x² and forgets the subtraction. C is 13² and does not represent the given expression. D is 10² and does not use the correct two side lengths. Memory cue: when a difference of squares is already factored, substitute into both factors before multiplying.
