Solution Steps

To solve the equation \((4y+3)(y+6) = -3(4y+3)\), we can first factor out the common term \((4y+3)\) from both sides. Then, solve the resulting equation for \(y\).

Step 1: Factor the Common Term

The given equation is \((4y+3)(y+6) = -3(4y+3)\). We can factor out the common term \((4y+3)\) from both sides:

\[ (4y+3)((y+6) + 3) = 0 \]

Step 2: Solve for \(y\)

This gives us two possible equations to solve:

  1. \(4y + 3 = 0\)
  2. \(y + 6 + 3 = 0\)
Solving \(4y + 3 = 0\):

\[ 4y = -3 \implies y = -\frac{3}{4} \]

Solving \(y + 9 = 0\):

\[ y = -9 \]

Final Answer

The solution set is \(\boxed{-\frac{3}{4}, -9}\).
