Combine like terms: 1 + -4 = -3
-3 + x + 2x = (x + 1)(x + -2)

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

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

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

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

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

Solving
-3 + 3x = -2 + -1x + x2

Solving for variable 'x'.
