a(a-1)(a+2)=

Solution for a(a-1)(a+2)= equation:

Simplifying
a(a + -1)(a + 2) = 0

Reorder the terms:
a(-1 + a)(a + 2) = 0

Reorder the terms:
a(-1 + a)(2 + a) = 0

Multiply (-1 + a) * (2 + a)
a(-1(2 + a) + a(2 + a)) = 0
a((2 * -1 + a * -1) + a(2 + a)) = 0
a((-2 + -1a) + a(2 + a)) = 0
a(-2 + -1a + (2 * a + a * a)) = 0
a(-2 + -1a + (2a + a2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1a + 2a = 1a
a(-2 + 1a + a2) = 0
(-2 * a + 1a * a + a2 * a) = 0
(-2a + 1a2 + a3) = 0

Solving
-2a + 1a2 + a3 = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Subproblem 1
Set the factor 'a' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
a = 0

Solving
a = 0

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

Simplifying
a = 0
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(-2 + -1a)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-2 + -1a = 0

Solving
-2 + -1a = 0

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

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

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

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

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

Simplifying
a = -2
Subproblem 3
Set the factor '(1 + -1a)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + -1a = 0

Solving
1 + -1a = 0

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

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

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

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

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

Simplifying
a = 1
Solution
a = {0, -2, 1}
