The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable:
 x: number of years
 y: total salary
 We have then:
 For first company:
 y = 1500x + 31000
 For second company:
 y = 2000x + 28500
 Equaling both equations we have:
 1500x + 31000 = 2000x + 28500
 Clearing x:
 2000x - 1500x = 31000 - 28500
 500x = 2500
 x = 2500/500
 x = 5
 Answer:
 
It will take for the salaries to be the same about:
 
x = 5 years

Answer:

The answer is about 32,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply 3.2 by 10, for 10 years, you get 32 percent. From there, if you multiply 25,000 by 0.32, you get 8000. If you add 25,000 to 8000, you get about 32,000.
