Jerry has a new job and earns a salary of $45,000. Victoria has a new job and earns a salary of $54,000. Jerry will receive a salary increase of $2,500 per year, and Victoria will receive a salary increase of $1,500 per year. Which equations can be used to find x, the number of years it will take Jerry to earn the same salary as Victoria?
45,000x + 2,500x = 54,000x + 1,500x
45,000x + 2,500 = 54,000x + 1,500
45,000 + 2,500x = 54,000 + 1,500x
45,000x + 2,500x = 54,000x + 1,500

Two eighth grade classes are selling raffle tickets to raise money. One class is selling tickets for $2.50 each and has already raised $350. The other class is selling tickets for $3.00 each and has already raised $225. Which equations can be used to find t, the number of tickets each class needs to sell so that the total amount raised is the same for both classes?
3t + 350 = 2.50t + 225
350t + 2.50 = 225t + 3
2.50t + 350 = 3t + 225

Sierra has a bucket that originally contained 340 fl oz of water and is being filled at a rate of 5 fl oz per minute. Brian has a bucket that originally contained 650 fl oz of water and is being drained at a rate of 8 fl oz per minute. What is x, the number of minutes that need to pass in order for the two buckets to contain the same amount of water?
340 + 5x = 650 + 8x
340x + 5 = 650x - 8
340 + 5x = 650 - 8x
340 - 5x = 650 - 8x
