Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(12 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
12 + x = 0

Solving
12 + x = 0

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

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -12 + x = 0 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + x = 0 + -12
x = 0 + -12

Combine like terms: 0 + -12 = -12
x = -12

Simplifying
x = -12
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(10 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
10 + x = 0

Solving
10 + x = 0

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

Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + x = 0 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + x = 0 + -10
x = 0 + -10

Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10
x = -10

Simplifying
x = -10
Solution
x = {-12, -10}
