(2y-1)(6+y)=0

Solution for (2y-1)(6+y)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(2y + -1)(6 + y) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + 2y)(6 + y) = 0

Multiply (-1 + 2y) * (6 + y)
(-1(6 + y) + 2y * (6 + y)) = 0
((6 * -1 + y * -1) + 2y * (6 + y)) = 0
((-6 + -1y) + 2y * (6 + y)) = 0
(-6 + -1y + (6 * 2y + y * 2y)) = 0
(-6 + -1y + (12y + 2y2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1y + 12y = 11y
(-6 + 11y + 2y2) = 0

Solving
-6 + 11y + 2y2 = 0

Solving for variable 'y'.

Factor a trinomial.
