solve:
(x+5)(x-1)(x+3)>0
solve just as equality:
x+5>0.......x>-5
x-1>0.......x>1
x+3>0...........x>-3

Now specify 4 intervals based on those critical points:








Note that the interval specifications do not include the endpoints (they are specified with parentheses rather than square brackets). That is because equality was not included in your original inequality symbol, i.e. it was rather than
