Question

How could Brent use a rectangle to model the factors of \large x^2-7x+6?

He could draw a diagram of a rectangle with dimensions x – 4 and x + 3 and then show the area is equivalent to the sum of x2, –4x, 3x, and half of –12.

He could draw a diagram of a rectangle with dimensions x – 1 and x – 6 and then show the area is equivalent to the sum of x2, –x, –6x, and 6.

He could draw a diagram of a rectangle with dimensions x + 7 and x – 1 and then show the area is equivalent to the sum of x2, 7x, –x, and 6.

He could draw a diagram of a rectangle with dimensions x – 3 and x – 4 and then show the area is equivalent to the sum of x2, –3x, –4x, and half of 12.
