15\left(3x+\frac{3x}{10}\right)=44\left(x+1750\right)
Variable x cannot be equal to -1750 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 60\left(x+1750\right), the least common multiple of 4x+7000,15.
45x+15\times \frac{3x}{10}=44\left(x+1750\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 15 by 3x+\frac{3x}{10}.
45x+\frac{15\times 3x}{10}=44\left(x+1750\right)
Express 15\times \frac{3x}{10} as a single fraction.
45x+\frac{45x}{10}=44\left(x+1750\right)
Multiply 15 and 3 to get 45.
45x+\frac{9}{2}x=44\left(x+1750\right)
Divide 45x by 10 to get \frac{9}{2}x.
\frac{99}{2}x=44\left(x+1750\right)
Combine 45x and \frac{9}{2}x to get \frac{99}{2}x.
\frac{99}{2}x=44x+77000
Use the distributive property to multiply 44 by x+1750.
\frac{99}{2}x-44x=77000
Subtract 44x from both sides.
\frac{11}{2}x=77000
Combine \frac{99}{2}x and -44x to get \frac{11}{2}x.
x=77000\times \frac{2}{11}
Multiply both sides by \frac{2}{11}, the reciprocal of \frac{11}{2}.
x=14000
Multiply 77000 and \frac{2}{11} to get 14000.
