Solve using the Zero Factor Property?

Asked by MyNewtBoobs (19059points) December 12th, 2010

Ok, I just don’t get how to do this, and my book is no help.
(2y+3)(y+2)=-5(2y+3)

So:
(2y+3)(y+2)+5(2y+3)=0
But then I get lost, especially when I read something about how each term has (2y+3), so I should remove that, but then I’m not quite sure how to do it. ::headdesk::

Help please?
