(x + 0.7) equal to 3.8 and -3.8.

Subproblem 1

x + 0.7 = 3.8 Simplifying x + 0.7 = 3.8 Reorder the terms: 0.7 + x = 3.8 Solving 0.7 + x = 3.8 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.7' to each side of the equation. 0.7 + -0.7 + x = 3.8 + -0.7 Combine like terms: 0.7 + -0.7 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 3.8 + -0.7 x = 3.8 + -0.7 Combine like terms: 3.8 + -0.7 = 3.1 x = 3.1 Simplifying x = 3.1

Subproblem 2

x + 0.7 = -3.8 Simplifying x + 0.7 = -3.8 Reorder the terms: 0.7 + x = -3.8 Solving 0.7 + x = -3.8 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.7' to each side of the equation. 0.7 + -0.7 + x = -3.8 + -0.7 Combine like terms: 0.7 + -0.7 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -3.8 + -0.7 x = -3.8 + -0.7 Combine like terms: -3.8 + -0.7 = -4.5 x = -4.5 Simplifying x = -4.5

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {3.1, -4.5}
