Answer:

  32 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

For some number of seconds (s), Tess's essay length (t) will be ...

  t = 42 +1.3s

and Margo's essay length (m) will be ...

  m = 122 -1.2s

We will have t > m when ...

  t > m

  42 +1.3s > 122 -1.2s

  2.5s > 80 . . . . . . . . add 1.2s-42

  s > 32 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2.5

After 32 seconds, Tess's essay will exceed Margo's in length.
