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

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

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

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

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

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 1x + x2 = (-2 + x)(x + -3)

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 1x + x2 = (-2 + x)(-3 + x)

Multiply (-2 + x) * (-3 + x)
-2 + 1x + x2 = (-2(-3 + x) + x(-3 + x))
-2 + 1x + x2 = ((-3 * -2 + x * -2) + x(-3 + x))
-2 + 1x + x2 = ((6 + -2x) + x(-3 + x))
-2 + 1x + x2 = (6 + -2x + (-3 * x + x * x))
-2 + 1x + x2 = (6 + -2x + (-3x + x2))

Combine like terms: -2x + -3x = -5x
-2 + 1x + x2 = (6 + -5x + x2)
