Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-60 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-60 + x = 0

Solving
-60 + x = 0

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

Add '60' to each side of the equation.
-60 + 60 + x = 0 + 60

Combine like terms: -60 + 60 = 0
0 + x = 0 + 60
x = 0 + 60

Combine like terms: 0 + 60 = 60
x = 60

Simplifying
x = 60
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(20 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
20 + -1x = 0

Solving
20 + -1x = 0

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

Add '-20' to each side of the equation.
20 + -20 + -1x = 0 + -20

Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0
0 + -1x = 0 + -20
-1x = 0 + -20

Combine like terms: 0 + -20 = -20
-1x = -20

Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 20

Simplifying
x = 20
Solution
x = {60, 20}
