You probably know that the area of any triangle is (1/2) x (base) x (height).

Take that formula, substitute (2x+3) in the place where it says "base", and

substitute (3x-1) in the place where it says "height". Then do the multiplication,

and you'll have a tidy expression for the area of your triangle.

Of course, it'll still have an "x" in it, as well as an "x2", but you should expect that.

If the base and the height both depend on the value of 'x', then naturally the area

must also depend on the value of 'x'.
