Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -2.6) equal to 0.00 and 0.00.

Subproblem 1

x + -2.6 = 0.00 Simplifying x + -2.6 = 0.00 Reorder the terms: -2.6 + x = 0.00 Solving -2.6 + x = 0.00 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2.6' to each side of the equation. -2.6 + 2.6 + x = 0.00 + 2.6 Combine like terms: -2.6 + 2.6 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 0.00 + 2.6 x = 0.00 + 2.6 Combine like terms: 0.00 + 2.6 = 2.6 x = 2.6 Simplifying x = 2.6

Subproblem 2

x + -2.6 = 0.00 Simplifying x + -2.6 = 0.00 Reorder the terms: -2.6 + x = 0.00 Solving -2.6 + x = 0.00 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2.6' to each side of the equation. -2.6 + 2.6 + x = 0.00 + 2.6 Combine like terms: -2.6 + 2.6 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 0.00 + 2.6 x = 0.00 + 2.6 Combine like terms: 0.00 + 2.6 = 2.6 x = 2.6 Simplifying x = 2.6

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {2.6, 2.6}
