Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(4 + r)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
4 + r = 0

Solving
4 + r = 0

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

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + r = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + r = 0 + -4
r = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4
r = -4

Simplifying
r = -4
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(2 + r)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
2 + r = 0

Solving
2 + r = 0

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

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + r = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + r = 0 + -2
r = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
r = -2

Simplifying
r = -2
Solution
r = {-4, -2}
