The solution

           /24   3*x\    
(3*x + 42)*|-- - ---| = 0
           \5     5 /    
$$\left(\frac{24}{5} - \frac{3 x}{5}\right) \left(3 x + 42\right) = 0$$
Detail solution
Expand the expression in the equation
$$\left(\frac{24}{5} - \frac{3 x}{5}\right) \left(3 x + 42\right) = 0$$
We get the quadratic equation
$$- \frac{9 x^{2}}{5} - \frac{54 x}{5} + \frac{1008}{5} = 0$$
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = - \frac{9}{5}$$
$$b = - \frac{54}{5}$$
$$c = \frac{1008}{5}$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-54/5)^2 - 4 * (-9/5) * (1008/5) = 39204/25

Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$x_{1} = -14$$
$$x_{2} = 8$$
Rapid solution [src]
x1 = -14
$$x_{1} = -14$$
x2 = 8
$$x_{2} = 8$$
x2 = 8
