(3x-6)(x+1)=0

Solution for (3x-6)(x+1)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(3x + -6)(x + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-6 + 3x)(x + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-6 + 3x)(1 + x) = 0

Multiply (-6 + 3x) * (1 + x)
(-6(1 + x) + 3x * (1 + x)) = 0
((1 * -6 + x * -6) + 3x * (1 + x)) = 0
((-6 + -6x) + 3x * (1 + x)) = 0
(-6 + -6x + (1 * 3x + x * 3x)) = 0
(-6 + -6x + (3x + 3x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -6x + 3x = -3x
(-6 + -3x + 3x2) = 0
