Simplifying
(x + -8)(6x + 3) = -15(x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + x)(6x + 3) = -15(x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + x)(3 + 6x) = -15(x + -8)

Multiply (-8 + x) * (3 + 6x)
(-8(3 + 6x) + x(3 + 6x)) = -15(x + -8)
((3 * -8 + 6x * -8) + x(3 + 6x)) = -15(x + -8)
((-24 + -48x) + x(3 + 6x)) = -15(x + -8)
(-24 + -48x + (3 * x + 6x * x)) = -15(x + -8)
(-24 + -48x + (3x + 6x2)) = -15(x + -8)

Combine like terms: -48x + 3x = -45x
(-24 + -45x + 6x2) = -15(x + -8)
