Answer: 6x^2 - 23x + 20

Explanation:

To find the area of a rectangle you multiple length times width.

(3x-4)(2x-5)

Use foil to distribute the terms:

6x^2 -15x-8x+20

combine like terms

6x^2 - 23x + 20

I do not see a list of options so I can not tell you what letter answer this lines up with but this is the answer.
