Answer:
[tex] x^2 - 12x [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given rectangle had a length (l) of (x - 12), and a width (w) of x.
Area of rectangle = [tex] l * w [/tex]
Therefore, the expression representing the are if the given rectangle is:
[tex] Area_{rectangle} = (x - 12)*x [/tex]
[tex] Area_{rectangle} = x*x - 12*x [/tex]
[tex] Area_{rectangle} = x^2 - 12x [/tex]
The expression for the area = [tex] x^2 - 12x [/tex]
