-12 + 3x2 = (-1 + x)(3 + x)

Multiply (-1 + x) * (3 + x)
-12 + 3x2 = (-1(3 + x) + x(3 + x))
-12 + 3x2 = ((3 * -1 + x * -1) + x(3 + x))
-12 + 3x2 = ((-3 + -1x) + x(3 + x))
-12 + 3x2 = (-3 + -1x + (3 * x + x * x))
-12 + 3x2 = (-3 + -1x + (3x + x2))

Combine like terms: -1x + 3x = 2x
-12 + 3x2 = (-3 + 2x + x2)

Solving
-12 + 3x2 = -3 + 2x + x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '2'.
-4.5 + -1x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4.5' to each side of the equation.
-4.5 + -1x + 4.5 + x2 = 0 + 4.5

Reorder the terms:
-4.5 + 4.5 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 4.5

Combine like terms: -4.5 + 4.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 4.5
-1x + x2 = 0 + 4.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 4.5 = 4.5
-1x + x2 = 4.5

The x term is -1x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1x + 0.25 + x2 = 4.5 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 4.5 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 4.5 + 0.25 = 4.75
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 4.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.5)(x + -0.5) = 4.75
