(n-1)(n+6)=0

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

Simplifying
(n + -1)(n + 6) = 0

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

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

Multiply (-1 + n) * (6 + n)
(-1(6 + n) + n(6 + n)) = 0
((6 * -1 + n * -1) + n(6 + n)) = 0
((-6 + -1n) + n(6 + n)) = 0
(-6 + -1n + (6 * n + n * n)) = 0
(-6 + -1n + (6n + n2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1n + 6n = 5n
(-6 + 5n + n2) = 0

Solving
-6 + 5n + n2 = 0

Solving for variable 'n'.

Factor a trinomial.
(-6 + -1n)(1 + -1n) = 0

Subproblem 1

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + -1n = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + -1n = 0 + -1
-1n = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
-1n = -1

Divide each side by '-1'.
n = 1

Simplifying
n = 1
Solution
n = {-6, 1}
