Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(10 + v)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
10 + v = 0

Solving
10 + v = 0

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

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

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

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

Simplifying
v = -10
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(6 + v)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
6 + v = 0

Solving
6 + v = 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 + v = 0 + -6

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

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

Simplifying
v = -6
Solution
v = {-10, -6}
