Simplifying
(x + 2)(x + 5) = (x + -1)(x + 3)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(x + 5) = (x + -1)(x + 3)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(5 + x) = (x + -1)(x + 3)

Multiply (2 + x) * (5 + x)
(2(5 + x) + x(5 + x)) = (x + -1)(x + 3)
((5 * 2 + x * 2) + x(5 + x)) = (x + -1)(x + 3)
((10 + 2x) + x(5 + x)) = (x + -1)(x + 3)
(10 + 2x + (5 * x + x * x)) = (x + -1)(x + 3)
(10 + 2x + (5x + x2)) = (x + -1)(x + 3)

Combine like terms: 2x + 5x = 7x
(10 + 7x + x2) = (x + -1)(x + 3)

Reorder the terms:
10 + 7x + x2 = (-1 + x)(x + 3)

Reorder the terms:
10 + 7x + x2 = (-1 + x)(3 + x)

Multiply (-1 + x) * (3 + x)
10 + 7x + x2 = (-1(3 + x) + x(3 + x))
10 + 7x + x2 = ((3 * -1 + x * -1) + x(3 + x))
10 + 7x + x2 = ((-3 + -1x) + x(3 + x))
10 + 7x + x2 = (-3 + -1x + (3 * x + x * x))
10 + 7x + x2 = (-3 + -1x + (3x + x2))

Combine like terms: -1x + 3x = 2x
10 + 7x + x2 = (-3 + 2x + x2)

Add '-1x2' to each side of the equation.
10 + 7x + x2 + -1x2 = -3 + 2x + x2 + -1x2
