Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 0.6) equal to 1 and -1.

Subproblem 1

x + 0.6 = 1 Simplifying x + 0.6 = 1 Reorder the terms: 0.6 + x = 1 Solving 0.6 + x = 1 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.6' to each side of the equation. 0.6 + -0.6 + x = 1 + -0.6 Combine like terms: 0.6 + -0.6 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 1 + -0.6 x = 1 + -0.6 Combine like terms: 1 + -0.6 = 0.4 x = 0.4 Simplifying x = 0.4

Subproblem 2

x + 0.6 = -1 Simplifying x + 0.6 = -1 Reorder the terms: 0.6 + x = -1 Solving 0.6 + x = -1 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.6' to each side of the equation. 0.6 + -0.6 + x = -1 + -0.6 Combine like terms: 0.6 + -0.6 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -1 + -0.6 x = -1 + -0.6 Combine like terms: -1 + -0.6 = -1.6 x = -1.6 Simplifying x = -1.6

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {0.4, -1.6}
