Answer:
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+1)(x+3)=(x+4)(x−1)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
x2+4x+3=x2+3x−4
Step 2: Subtract x^2 from both sides.
x2+4x+3−x2=x2+3x−4−x2
4x+3=3x−4
Step 3: Subtract 3x from both sides.
4x+3−3x=3x−4−3x
x+3=−4
Step 4: Subtract 3 from both sides.
x+3−3=−4−3
x=−7

(x+1)(x+3) = (x+4)(x-1)
x²+3x+x+3 = x²+4x-x-4
x²+4x+3 = x²+3x-4
x²+4x+3-x²-3x+4 = 0
x+7 = 0
x = -7
