I really want to help but I don’t know the answer, sorry
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
3/18 = 1/6 =.16666666.....

your choice A and D are the same
and choice B and C are the same
Answer:
3 - (n - 1) = 1/2(3n - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to write three minus the difference of a number and one equals one-half of the difference of three times the same number and four as an equation.
Let the number be n.
The first part is: three minus the difference of a number and one:
3 - (n - 1)
The second part is: one-half of the difference of three times the same number and four:
1/2(3n - 4)
Now, let us equate the first and second parts:
3 - (n - 1) = 1/2(3n - 4)
