Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 4) equal to 3.31662479 and -3.31662479.

Subproblem 1
x + 4 = 3.31662479

Simplifying
x + 4 = 3.31662479

Reorder the terms:
4 + x = 3.31662479

Solving
4 + x = 3.31662479

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + x = 3.31662479 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + x = 3.31662479 + -4
x = 3.31662479 + -4

Combine like terms: 3.31662479 + -4 = -0.68337521
x = -0.68337521

Simplifying
x = -0.68337521

Subproblem 2
x + 4 = -3.31662479

Simplifying
x + 4 = -3.31662479

Reorder the terms:
4 + x = -3.31662479

Solving
4 + x = -3.31662479

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + x = -3.31662479 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + x = -3.31662479 + -4
x = -3.31662479 + -4

Combine like terms: -3.31662479 + -4 = -7.31662479
x = -7.31662479

Simplifying
x = -7.31662479

Solution
