$-3$

Work Step by Step

$(x^{2}+1)^{5}(x+3)^{4}+(x^{2}+1)^{6}(x+3)^{3}=0$ $(x^{2}+1)^{5}(x+3)^{3}((x+3)+(x^{2}+1))=0$ $(x^{2}+1)^{5}(x+3)^{3}(x^{2}+x+4)=0$ $(x^{2}+1)^{5}=0, x^{2}+1=0, undifined, x$ $is $ $imaginary$ $ number$ $(x+3)^{3}=0, x+3=0, x=-3$ $x^{2}+x+4=0, undifined, x$ $is$ $imaginary $ $number$
