Simplifying
(X + 7)(X + -3) = 12

Reorder the terms:
(7 + X)(X + -3) = 12

Reorder the terms:
(7 + X)(-3 + X) = 12

Multiply (7 + X) * (-3 + X)
(7(-3 + X) + X(-3 + X)) = 12
((-3 * 7 + X * 7) + X(-3 + X)) = 12
((-21 + 7X) + X(-3 + X)) = 12
(-21 + 7X + (-3 * X + X * X)) = 12
(-21 + 7X + (-3X + X2)) = 12

Combine like terms: 7X + -3X = 4X
(-21 + 4X + X2) = 12

Solving
-21 + 4X + X2 = 12

Solving for variable 'X'.

Reorder the terms:
-21 + -12 + 4X + X2 = 12 + -12

Combine like terms: -21 + -12 = -33
-33 + 4X + X2 = 12 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
-33 + 4X + X2 = 0
