Answer:

5.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

24900 times 6.75% = 1,680.75

so this is how much it goes down per year, but we have to find it were the price reaches 15900. so 9000-1680.75=

7,319.25( one year)

7,319.25-1680.75 = 5,638.5 (second year)

5,638.5-1680.75= 3,957.75 (third year)

3,957.75-1680.75 = 2,277 (fourth year)

2,277-1680.75= 596.25 (fifth year)
