If \((2x+3)^2\) is expanded, which expression gives the total area?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(4x^2+12x+9\)

The direct answer is A: \(4x^2+12x+9\). A square with side \(2x+3\) can be divided into four regions. The large square has side \(2x\), so its area is \((2x)^2=4x^2\). Each of the two mixed rectangles has area \((2x)(3)=6x\), giving a combined area of \(12x\). The small square has side 3 and area \(3^2=9\). Adding all regions gives \(4x^2+6x+6x+9=4x^2+12x+9\). Option B incorrectly changes \((2x)^2\) to \(2x^2\). Option C counts only one mixed rectangle, giving 6x instead of 12x. Option D uses 3 rather than \(3^2=9\) for the constant square. The safe method is to use \((u+v)^2=u^2+2uv+v^2\).
