Ignore the factor 6.

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(6 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 6 + -1x = 0 Solving 6 + -1x = 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 + -1x = 0 + -6 Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + -6 -1x = 0 + -6 Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6 -1x = -6 Divide each side by '-1'. x = 6 Simplifying x = 6

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(8 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 8 + x = 0 Solving 8 + x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-8' to each side of the equation. 8 + -8 + x = 0 + -8 Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0 0 + x = 0 + -8 x = 0 + -8 Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8 x = -8 Simplifying x = -8

Solution

x = {6, -8}
