So the culture banner size has length x, width x (since it is square)
The sports banner has length x+12, width x.
The area of the sports banner is length x width = x(x+12) = x²+12x.
Now, lets look at the tiles.
- The monomial, x, a factor of the expression is the width of the sports banner.
- The binomial (x+12) is the length of the spots banner (this is given!)
- The second degree term of the expression x²+12 is x², the area of the culture banner
- The first degree term of the expression x²+12x is 12x, it represents the increase in area, since the area went from x² to x²+12x
