Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 6) equal to 5.830951895 and -5.830951895.

Subproblem 1
x + 6 = 5.830951895

Simplifying
x + 6 = 5.830951895

Reorder the terms:
6 + x = 5.830951895

Solving
6 + x = 5.830951895

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + x = 5.830951895 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + x = 5.830951895 + -6
x = 5.830951895 + -6

Combine like terms: 5.830951895 + -6 = -0.169048105
x = -0.169048105

Simplifying
x = -0.169048105

Subproblem 2
x + 6 = -5.830951895

Simplifying
x + 6 = -5.830951895

Reorder the terms:
6 + x = -5.830951895

Solving
6 + x = -5.830951895

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + x = -5.830951895 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + x = -5.830951895 + -6
x = -5.830951895 + -6

Combine like terms: -5.830951895 + -6 = -11.830951895
x = -11.830951895

Simplifying
x = -11.830951895

Solution
The solution to the problem is based on the solutions
from the subproblems.
x = {-0.169048105, -11.830951895}
Solution
x = {-0.169048105, -11.830951895}
