Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 1) equal to 1.527525232 and -1.527525232.

Subproblem 1
x + 1 = 1.527525232

Simplifying
x + 1 = 1.527525232

Reorder the terms:
1 + x = 1.527525232

Solving
1 + x = 1.527525232

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 = 1.527525232 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + x = 1.527525232 + -1
x = 1.527525232 + -1

Combine like terms: 1.527525232 + -1 = 0.527525232
x = 0.527525232

Simplifying
x = 0.527525232

Subproblem 2
x + 1 = -1.527525232

Simplifying
x + 1 = -1.527525232

Reorder the terms:
1 + x = -1.527525232

Solving
1 + x = -1.527525232

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 = -1.527525232 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + x = -1.527525232 + -1
x = -1.527525232 + -1
