The area of a square model is x²+14x+49. If the outer side is (x+k), what is k?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 7

The direct answer is C: k=7. The square model represents (x+k)². Using the identity (x+k)²=x²+2kx+k², compare it with x²+14x+49. The constant term tells us k²=49, so the positive side length gives k=7. The middle term checks the result: 2kx=2·7·x=14x, exactly as required. A=14 is the coefficient of x, not k; it would make the middle term 28x. B=21 has no matching square or middle coefficient. D=49 is the constant term, but k is its square root, not the term itself. Because a side length is taken as positive in this model, 7 is the suitable value. Memory cue: for x²+mx+n, first take k=√n and then verify that 2k=m.
