An area model shows (4x+3y)(4x−3y). Which area is correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 16x²−9y²

The direct answer is C: 16x²−9y². Put A=4x and B=3y. The expression then becomes (A+B)(A−B), which is the difference-of-squares identity: (A+B)(A−B)=A²−B². Substituting back gives (4x)²−(3y)² = 16x²−9y². Expansion confirms the result: 4x·4x=16x², 4x·(−3y)=−12xy, 3y·4x=12xy, and 3y·(−3y)=−9y². The two middle terms cancel. A is wrong because it adds the squares, which is not the identity here. B has incorrect coefficients and powers. D incorrectly leaves a middle term −24xy; that would arise from multiplying expressions with the same negative sign pattern, not opposite signs. Memory cue: same first part and opposite second parts means square the parts and subtract.
