The answer is:

(x - 3)(2x + 9)

Work/explanation:

Since (x-3) appears in both terms, we move it to the first place:

(x - 3)

We need to have another term; for that other term, we take what's left, and put that as our other term.

As a result, we have:

(x - 3)(2x + 9)

Hence, this is the answer.
