Question
Express the area of the entire rectangle.
Expression should be expanded.
An area model for a rectangle with a height of three x and a width of two x minus three. The rectangle is broken into two rectangles to isolate each term in the width. The first rectangle has a height of three x and a width of two x. The second rectangle has a height of three x and a width of negative three.

To find the area of the rectangle based on the given dimensions, we start with the height and width.
1. **Height of the rectangle**: \( h = 3x \)
2. **Width of the rectangle**: \( w = 2x - 3 \)
The area \( A \) of a rectangle is calculated using the formula:
\[
A = \text{Height} \times \text{Width}
\]
Substituting the given values:
\[
A = (3x)(2x - 3)
\]
To find the expanded form, we can distribute \( 3x \) across the width:
\[
A = 3x \cdot 2x + 3x \cdot (-3)
\]
Calculating each term:
- \( 3x \cdot 2x = 6x^2 \)
- \( 3x \cdot (-3) = -9x \)
Now, combining these results gives us:
\[
A = 6x^2 - 9x
\]
Thus, the area of the rectangle, expressed in expanded form, is:
\[
\boxed{6x^2 - 9x}
\]
