To factor this equation, you can factor out an x from each term:
x^2 + 6x = 0
x(x+6) = 0
Now you can use the principle of zero products to solve the problem. The principle of zero products says if ab = 0, either a, b, or both must be equal to zero.
So in this problem, x = 0 or (x+6) = 0.
(x+6) = 0
x = -6
So the two solutions to this problem are x = 0 and x = -6.
