Simplifying
(b + 4)(b + -15) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(4 + b)(b + -15) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(4 + b)(-15 + b) = 0

Multiply (4 + b) * (-15 + b)
(4(-15 + b) + b(-15 + b)) = 0
((-15 * 4 + b * 4) + b(-15 + b)) = 0
((-60 + 4b) + b(-15 + b)) = 0
(-60 + 4b + (-15 * b + b * b)) = 0
(-60 + 4b + (-15b + b2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 4b + -15b = -11b
(-60 + -11b + b2) = 0
