You would do the equation like 4x+20=160. Subtract 20 on both sides. Then it would be 4x=140 Divide 4 on each sides and you would get 35. Each sweater would be $35.

Answer:

B. 35 dollars

Explanation:

So first you have to subtract 20 from 160 because that is the only cost that we definitely know. 160-20=140

Then you have to divide 4 from 140 because the sweaters cost the same amount and she bought 4 of them and 140 divided by 4 is 35

So each sweater coat 35 dollars
