Ignore the factor 2.

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(4 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 4 + -1x = 0 Solving 4 + -1x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-4' to each side of the equation. 4 + -4 + -1x = 0 + -4 Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + -4 -1x = 0 + -4 Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4 -1x = -4 Divide each side by '-1'. x = 4 Simplifying x = 4

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(2 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + x = 0 Solving 2 + x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + x = 0 + -2 x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 x = -2 Simplifying x = -2

Solution

x = {4, -2}
