x = 4

Simplifying
x = 4
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(6 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
6 + x = 0

Solving
6 + x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + x = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + x = 0 + -6
x = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6
x = -6

Simplifying
x = -6
Solution
x = {4, -6}
