The solution

You have entered [src]
(-x - 4)*(3*x + 3) = 0
(x4)(3x+3)=0\left(- x - 4\right) \left(3 x + 3\right) = 0
Detail solution
Expand the expression in the equation
(x4)(3x+3)=0\left(- x - 4\right) \left(3 x + 3\right) = 0
We get the quadratic equation
3x215x12=0- 3 x^{2} - 15 x - 12 = 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:
x1=Db2ax_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}
x2=Db2ax_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
a=3a = -3
b=15b = -15
c=12c = -12
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-15)^2 - 4 * (-3) * (-12) = 81

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

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

or
x1=4x_{1} = -4
x2=1x_{2} = -1
