Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -1.5) equal to 3 and -3.

Subproblem 1

x + -1.5 = 3 Simplifying x + -1.5 = 3 Reorder the terms: -1.5 + x = 3 Solving -1.5 + x = 3 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 = 3 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 3 + 1.5 x = 3 + 1.5 Combine like terms: 3 + 1.5 = 4.5 x = 4.5 Simplifying x = 4.5

Subproblem 2

x + -1.5 = -3 Simplifying x + -1.5 = -3 Reorder the terms: -1.5 + x = -3 Solving -1.5 + x = -3 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 = -3 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -3 + 1.5 x = -3 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -3 + 1.5 = -1.5 x = -1.5 Simplifying x = -1.5

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {4.5, -1.5}
