A
Image with description An algebra tile layout with tiles arranged in a grid. Along the top row are 2 tiles labeled positive x, followed by 3 tiles each labeled negative 1. Along the left side are 2 tiles each labeled positive x, followed by 3 tiles each labeled positive 1. Inside the main grid, the upper left section contains 4 large square tiles each labeled positive x squared, arranged in 2 rows and 2 columns. To the right of the upper positive x squared tiles in the first row are 3 rectangular tiles each labeled positive x. To the right of the lower positive x squared tiles in the second row are 3 rectangular tiles each labeled negative x. Below the positive x squared tiles are 3 rectangular tiles each labeled positive x, arranged in 3 rows and 1 column. To the right of these are 3 rectangular tiles each labeled negative x, arranged in 3 rows and 1 column. In the lower right section are 9 small square tiles each labeled negative 1, arranged in 3 rows and 3 columns.
