Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(17 + j)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
17 + j = 0

Solving
17 + j = 0

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

Add '-17' to each side of the equation.
17 + -17 + j = 0 + -17

Combine like terms: 17 + -17 = 0
0 + j = 0 + -17
j = 0 + -17

Combine like terms: 0 + -17 = -17
j = -17

Simplifying
j = -17
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + j)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + j = 0

Solving
1 + j = 0

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

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

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

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

Simplifying
j = -1
Solution
j = {-17, -1}
