Farrah borrowed $155 from her brother. She has already paid back $15. She plans to pay back $35 each month until the debt is paid off.

Which describes the number of months it will take to pay off the debt? Select three options.
x + 15 + 35 = 155
35 x + 15 = 155
35 x = 155 minus 15
It will take 8 months to pay off the debt.
It will take 4 months to pay off the debt.
