Answer:

The area of the rectangle is (5) equal to the multiple of its two sides this is equal to two inches times an expression three less than a certain number "x". Using the distributive property. But if you are still confused when you double it, just know there is another way to solve it. You can solve it without doubling by, making it six less than a certain number x.

Answer:

x= "a certain number of inches"

side a= x-3

side b= 2 inches

multiply:

Area= a(b)

A= (x-3)2

A= 2(x-3)

distribute:

A= 2(x-3)

A= (2*x) + (2*-3)

A= 2x-6

Area= 2(x-3)

Area= 2x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is equal to the multiple of its two sides this is equal to two inches times an expression three less than a certain number "x". Using the distributive property, we can solve this expression further to find that the area of this rectangle is also equal to six less than doubling a certain number x.
