Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-1 + -1v)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-1 + -1v = 0

Solving
-1 + -1v = 0

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

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

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

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

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

Simplifying
v = -1
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(8 + -1v)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
8 + -1v = 0

Solving
8 + -1v = 0

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

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -8 + -1v = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
0 + -1v = 0 + -8
-1v = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8
-1v = -8

Divide each side by '-1'.
v = 8

Simplifying
v = 8
Solution
v = {-1, 8}
