-1p = -2

Divide each side by '-1'.
p = 2

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

Simplifying
6 + p = 0

Solving
6 + p = 0

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

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

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

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

Simplifying
p = -6
Solution
p = {2, -6}
