You have to insert 67 for y and then only solve the equation for X
67=-24x+379
x=?

If you need more help let me know :)

y = amount left so y = 67

rewrite the equation as:

67 = -24x+379

subtract 379 from both sides

-312 = -24x

divide both sides by -24

x = -312 / -24

x = 13

the answer is 13 weeks
