The answer is Simplifying

x(x + 11) = 0

Reorder the terms:

x(11 + x) = 0

(11 * x + x * x) = 0

(11x + x2) = 0

Solving

11x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'x'.

x(11 + x) = 0

Set the factor 'x' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

x = 0

Solving

x = 0

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

Simplifying

x = 0

Set the factor '(11 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

11 + x = 0

Solving

11 + x = 0

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

Add '-11' to each side of the equation.

11 + -11 + x = 0 + -11

Combine like terms: 11 + -11 = 0

0 + x = 0 + -11

x = 0 + -11

Combine like terms: 0 + -11 = -11

x = -11

Simplifying

x = -11

Solution

x = {0, -11}
