(x + 3)(x + 4) = 15

Reorder the terms:
(3 + x)(x + 4) = 15

Reorder the terms:
(3 + x)(4 + x) = 15

Multiply (3 + x) * (4 + x)
(3(4 + x) + x(4 + x)) = 15
((4 * 3 + x * 3) + x(4 + x)) = 15
((12 + 3x) + x(4 + x)) = 15
(12 + 3x + (4 * x + x * x)) = 15
(12 + 3x + (4x + x2)) = 15

Combine like terms: 3x + 4x = 7x
(12 + 7x + x2) = 15

Solving
12 + 7x + x2 = 15

Solving for variable 'x'.
