Which expansion is given by the area model of a rectangle with dimensions (a+3) and (a+7)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a²+10a+21

The direct answer is C: a²+10a+21. Divide the rectangle into four parts. Their areas are a×a=a², a×7=7a, 3×a=3a, and 3×7=21. Adding them gives a²+7a+3a+21=a²+10a+21. Option A has the correct first two terms but uses 10 instead of the constant product 3×7=21. Option B confuses the product 21 with the coefficient of a and places 10 as the constant. Option C correctly includes every region of the area model. Option D has the correct constant 21 but incorrectly makes the middle term 4a; the cross-terms must be 7a+3a=10a. A useful rule is (a+m)(a+n)=a²+(m+n)a+mn: add the two numbers for the middle coefficient and multiply them for the constant term.
