If the rectangle model of (x²+mx+56) is formed by (x+7) and (x+8), what are the two middle strips?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 7x and 8x, the two strips

The direct answer is D. Make a rectangle whose side lengths are x+7 and x+8, then split each side into x and its constant part. The four cells are x by x, x by 8, 7 by x, and 7 by 8. Their areas are x², 8x, 7x, and 56. The two middle strips are therefore 7x and 8x; together they form the middle term 15x. Hence (x+7)(x+8)=x²+15x+56, so m=15. A confuses a corner with a strip, B gives a sum rather than the two separate strips, and C lists only side lengths rather than areas. Memory cue: each x meets each constant once, producing the two x-strips.
