If a rectangle has length (2x+5) and breadth x, what will the area model give?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2x^2+5x

The correct answer is A: 2x^2+5x. The area of a rectangle is length multiplied by breadth. Therefore, area=(2x+5)×x. Use the distributive property by multiplying x by every term inside the bracket: x(2x+5)=x(2x)+x(5)=2x^2+5x. The area model shows the same idea visually. Split the length 2x+5 into parts 2x and 5. The first smaller rectangle has dimensions 2x and x, so its area is 2x^2. The second has dimensions 5 and x, so its area is 5x. Adding the two smaller areas gives 2x^2+5x. Option B loses the factor x in the second part, so it should have 5x, not 5. Option C has the wrong coefficient for both terms and does not follow distribution. Option D adds expressions rather than multiplying length by breadth, so it does not represent area. Memory cue: in an area model, partition one side, multiply each part by the other side, and add the resulting areas.
