Someone help me plz:

Andrew has an annual income of $25,000. He decides to take classes online and at night so that he can continue to work. After 3 years, he gets his degree and immediately starts earning $35,000 per year. If it takes Andrew 6 years to recover his investment for his education, how much did it cost him? Show your work.

  • Initial income =$25000
  • Final income=$35000

Rate of change=35000-25000=10000

Time=6years

Total cost


\\ \sf\longmapsto 10000(6)=\$60000
