This is a longer grueling problem: By the zero product property, we have:
x^2 + 16x - 12 = 0 => -16 +- sqrt(256 + 48) over 2, -16 +- 4sqrt(19) over 2, -8 +/- 2sqrt(19)
3x^2 - 9x + 8 = 0 => 9 +- sqrt(81 - 4*8*3), but we see its imaginary, so only consider the above case to be real.
If multiply to greater than 0, by parity, we have:
x^2 + 16x - 12x > 0 => x = (-infinity, -8 - 2sqrt(19)) U (-8 + 2sqrt(19), infinity)
and (3x^2 - 9x + 8) > 0 at the same time. => x = (-infinity, infinity)
By negative parities, we have:
x^2 + 16x - 12 < 0 => x = (-8 - 2sqrt(19), -8 + 2sqrt(19))
and 3x^2 - 9x + 8 < 0 => no solutions for x
Now we have to satisfy the original inequality, so we look for the most constricting ranges, obviously (-infinity, infinity) isn't helpful, and we can see that most of our bolded revolve around -8 +/- 2sqrt(19), meaning that those two values are our values of x.
