Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'x' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying x = 0 Solving x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying x = 0

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(2 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + -1x = 0 Solving 2 + -1x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + -1x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + -2 -1x = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 -1x = -2 Divide each side by '-1'. x = 2 Simplifying x = 2

Subproblem 3

Set the factor '(1 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 1 + x = 0 Solving 1 + x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + x = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + x = 0 + -1 x = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1 x = -1 Simplifying x = -1

Solution

x = {0, 2, -1}
