Without the instructions, I can only assume that you are to "expand the given expression."

Following order of operations rules requires that (3x-2)^2 and -6(2x-1.5) be evaluated first.

(3x-2)^2 = 9x^2 - 12x + 4   and    -6(2x-1.5) = -12x + 9

Then we have 9x^2 - (9x^2 - 12x + 4) -12x + 9

the 9x^2 terms cancel, leaving  us with 12x - 4 - 12x + 9 = 5 (answer)
