Subproblem 1
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
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(6 + -1v)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
6 + -1v = 0

Solving
6 + -1v = 0

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

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + -1v = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + -1v = 0 + -6
-1v = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6
-1v = -6

Divide each side by '-1'.
v = 6

Simplifying
v = 6
Solution
v = {-2, 6}
