y=x26x+12

Explanation:

Multiply out the brackets and collect like terms.

(x3)2=(x3)(x3)=x23x3x+9

y=x26x+9+3=x26x+12

Writing an answer in standard form means , start with the term that has the highest power of the variable , in this case x2
Followed by terms with decreasing powers until the last term , usually a constant.
