Answer:For a rectangle the expression would be:

A

=

(

x

+

6

)

(

x

3

)

or

A

=

x

2

3

x

18

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area (assuming this is a rectangle) is:

A

=

l

w

where

A

is the area of the rectangle,

l

is the length of the rectangle and

w

is the width of the rectangle.

In this problem we are provided the length and width which we can substitute for the

l

and

w

is the formula to give:

A

=

(

x

+

6

)

(

x

3

)

We can expand this to the form of a quadratic equation by cross multiplying to give:

A

=

x

2

+

6

x

3

x

18

A

=

x

2

3

x

18

Step-by-step Explanation: The formula for area (assuming this is a rectangle) is: A=l⋅w where A is the area of the rectangle, l is the length of the rectangle and w is the width of the rectangle.
