Multiply (2 + x) * (-8 + x)
x(2(-8 + x) + x(-8 + x)) = 0
x((-8 * 2 + x * 2) + x(-8 + x)) = 0
x((-16 + 2x) + x(-8 + x)) = 0
x(-16 + 2x + (-8 * x + x * x)) = 0
x(-16 + 2x + (-8x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 2x + -8x = -6x
x(-16 + -6x + x2) = 0
(-16 * x + -6x * x + x2 * x) = 0
(-16x + -6x2 + x3) = 0

Solving
-16x + -6x2 + x3 = 0
