The problem requires finding the value of variable $x$ based on the provided algebraic equation involving decimal numbers.
First, simplify the terms within the parentheses:
Now, substitute the simplified terms back into the original equation:
The equation becomes: $ (3 + \text{x}) - 0.64 = 4 $
Combine the constant terms:
$ 3 + \text{x} - 0.64 = 4 $
$ \text{x} + (3 - 0.64) = 4 $
$ \text{x} + 2.36 = 4 $
To find $x$, subtract 2.36 from both sides:
$ \text{x} = 4 - 2.36 $
$ \text{x} = 1.64 $
The value of x is $1.64$. This corresponds to Option A.
