(x + 1) equal to 3 and -3.

Subproblem 1

x + 1 = 3 Simplifying x + 1 = 3 Reorder the terms: 1 + x = 3 Solving 1 + x = 3 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + x = 3 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + x = 3 + -1 x = 3 + -1 Combine like terms: 3 + -1 = 2 x = 2 Simplifying x = 2

Subproblem 2

x + 1 = -3 Simplifying x + 1 = -3 Reorder the terms: 1 + x = -3 Solving 1 + x = -3 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + x = -3 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + x = -3 + -1 x = -3 + -1 Combine like terms: -3 + -1 = -4 x = -4 Simplifying x = -4

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {2, -4}
