Let us rewrite this equation as:
<em>160/x = some number + 4/x
</em>we can assume that some number of x's can fit into 160, but x is greater than 4 so we have a remainder.
We can figure out by using the remainder that x is completely divisible into (160-4) or 156. Knowing this we can assume that x is some factor of 156 that is greater than 4.
Let us list the factors of 156
1,2,3,4,6,12,13,26,39,52,78,156
Now let us refer back to the restrictions we put on x.
<em>x must be > 4 as anything less than 4 would divide at least 1 more time into it. So now we are left with a bunch of other factors. And the cool thing is that all of the factors excluding anything that is = or < 4 all work for getting a remainder of 4. Thus we can use the largest factor and set it equal to x.
</em>So x = 156
then if we divide 315 by x or <em>315/x = 315/156 = 2 and a remainder of 3
so the answer would be 3.</em>

The answer is y = -3x + 11, if you plug in a few examples it works.
Helen subtracted 17 from the right side of the equation when she should have added 17. Adding 17 to both sides would have gotten x/y by itself.
The answer is 'Helen should have added 17 to both sides of the equation'.
Answer: Girls weekly: 25; Girls never:40; boys yearly: 25; boys never: 20; boys total:80 monthly total: 30
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to figure it out by adding or subtracting where ever it needs to be like in girls weekly you have to subtract the weekly total and the boys weekly to figure it out.
