Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -1.5) equal to 16.5 and -16.5.

Subproblem 1

x + -1.5 = 16.5 Simplifying x + -1.5 = 16.5 Reorder the terms: -1.5 + x = 16.5 Solving -1.5 + x = 16.5 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.5' to each side of the equation. -1.5 + 1.5 + x = 16.5 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 16.5 + 1.5 x = 16.5 + 1.5 Combine like terms: 16.5 + 1.5 = 18 x = 18 Simplifying x = 18

Subproblem 2

x + -1.5 = -16.5 Simplifying x + -1.5 = -16.5 Reorder the terms: -1.5 + x = -16.5 Solving -1.5 + x = -16.5 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.5' to each side of the equation. -1.5 + 1.5 + x = -16.5 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -16.5 + 1.5 x = -16.5 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -16.5 + 1.5 = -15 x = -15 Simplifying x = -15

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {18, -15}
