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

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

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

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

Multiply (-6 + 2x) * (1 + x)
2(-6(1 + x) + 2x * (1 + x)) = 0
2((1 * -6 + x * -6) + 2x * (1 + x)) = 0
2((-6 + -6x) + 2x * (1 + x)) = 0
2(-6 + -6x + (1 * 2x + x * 2x)) = 0
2(-6 + -6x + (2x + 2x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -6x + 2x = -4x
2(-6 + -4x + 2x2) = 0
(-6 * 2 + -4x * 2 + 2x2 * 2) = 0
