The length of the side of a rectangular desk is given by 6x - 3y cm. The length of the front is given by 6x + 3y cm. What is an algebraic expression for the area of the top of the rectangular desk? Include correct units as part of your answer.

The length of the side of a rectangular desk is given by 6x - 3y cm.
The length of the front is given by 6x + 3y cm.
...
Area = L*W
Area = (6x-3y)(6x+3y)
Area = (36x^2-9y^2) cm^2
