Subproblem 3
Set the factor '(1 + p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + p = 0

Solving
1 + p = 0

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

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

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

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

Simplifying
p = -1
Subproblem 4
Set the factor '(-1 + p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-1 + p = 0

Solving
-1 + p = 0

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

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

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

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
p = 1

Simplifying
p = 1
Solution
p = {-1, 1}
