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

Simplifying
-1 + -1v = 0

Solving
-1 + -1v = 0

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

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

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

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

Divide each side by '-1'.
v = -1

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

Simplifying
2 + -1v = 0

Solving
2 + -1v = 0

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

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + -1v = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + -1v = 0 + -2
-1v = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
-1v = -2

Divide each side by '-1'.
v = 2

Simplifying
v = 2
Solution
v = {-1, 2}
