Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(2 + n)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
2 + n = 0

Solving
2 + n = 0

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

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + n = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + n = 0 + -2
n = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
n = -2

Simplifying
n = -2
Solution
n = {0, -2}
