Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 0.65) equal to 2.85 and -2.85.

Subproblem 1

x + 0.65 = 2.85 Simplifying x + 0.65 = 2.85 Reorder the terms: 0.65 + x = 2.85 Solving 0.65 + x = 2.85 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.65' to each side of the equation. 0.65 + -0.65 + x = 2.85 + -0.65 Combine like terms: 0.65 + -0.65 = 0.00 0.00 + x = 2.85 + -0.65 x = 2.85 + -0.65 Combine like terms: 2.85 + -0.65 = 2.2 x = 2.2 Simplifying x = 2.2

Subproblem 2

x + 0.65 = -2.85 Simplifying x + 0.65 = -2.85 Reorder the terms: 0.65 + x = -2.85 Solving 0.65 + x = -2.85 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.65' to each side of the equation. 0.65 + -0.65 + x = -2.85 + -0.65 Combine like terms: 0.65 + -0.65 = 0.00 0.00 + x = -2.85 + -0.65 x = -2.85 + -0.65 Combine like terms: -2.85 + -0.65 = -3.5 x = -3.5 Simplifying x = -3.5

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {2.2, -3.5}
