Multiply 11 and 1.4 to get 15.4.
15.4+3x=3.5x+4.9
Use the distributive property to multiply 3.5 by x+1.4.
15.4+3x-3.5x=4.9
Subtract 3.5x from both sides.
15.4-0.5x=4.9
Combine 3x and -3.5x to get -0.5x.
-0.5x=4.9-15.4
Subtract 15.4 from both sides.
-0.5x=-10.5
Subtract 15.4 from 4.9 to get -10.5.
x=\frac{-10.5}{-0.5}
Divide both sides by -0.5.
x=\frac{-105}{-5}
Expand \frac{-10.5}{-0.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
