The rectangular equation is x = 3t + 6 and y = 9t^2.

To eliminate the parameter t, we can solve the first equation for t and substitute it into the second equation. From the first equation, we have t = (x - 6)/3. Substituting this into the second equation, we get y = 9((x - 6)/3)^2.

Simplifying, we have y = (x - 6)^2

Therefore, the rectangular equation is y = (x-6)^2 with no restrictions on x and y.
