The answer would be: the area removed from the sheet of glass after being cut

Mr. Smith has a square sheet of glass where x is the side length of the original glass. Then, the area of the original glass (before cut) would be: side*side= x^2
He plans to cut 3 inches off of the sheet. The area of the glass that will be cut would be: wide*original glass side= 3*x= 3x 
The area of the sheet of glass after being cut is= x^2 -3x
