Make two equations representing the position of each animal, p and k, for the puppy and kitten respectively.

p=25t and k=180+20t  

The puppy will catch the kitten when p=k so we can say:

25t=180+20t  subtract 20t from both sides

5t=180  divide both sides by 5

t=36

So the puppy will catch the kitten after 36 seconds.
