Simplifying
(x + -3)(x + 4) = 7x

Reorder the terms:
(-3 + x)(x + 4) = 7x

Reorder the terms:
(-3 + x)(4 + x) = 7x

Multiply (-3 + x) * (4 + x)
(-3(4 + x) + x(4 + x)) = 7x
((4 * -3 + x * -3) + x(4 + x)) = 7x
((-12 + -3x) + x(4 + x)) = 7x
(-12 + -3x + (4 * x + x * x)) = 7x
(-12 + -3x + (4x + x2)) = 7x

Combine like terms: -3x + 4x = 1x
(-12 + 1x + x2) = 7x

Solving
-12 + 1x + x2 = 7x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-12 + 1x + -7x + x2 = 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 1x + -7x = -6x
-12 + -6x + x2 = 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0
-12 + -6x + x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '12' to each side of the equation.
-12 + -6x + 12 + x2 = 0 + 12

Reorder the terms:
-12 + 12 + -6x + x2 = 0 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0
0 + -6x + x2 = 0 + 12
-6x + x2 = 0 + 12

Combine like terms: 0 + 12 = 12
-6x + x2 = 12

The x term is -6x.  Take half its coefficient (-3).
