Answer:
7 strips
Step-by-step explanation:
One way we can solve this is through guess and check. Let's start with 4 strips. If Joe's grandma makes 4 strips, she will have 0.75*4 = 3.00 yards of fabric. That's a really low amount of fabric. Let's double that to 8, where Joe's grandma would need 0.75*8 = 6.00 yards of fabric. That's really close! Let's remove one strip. 0.75*7 = 5.25 yards of fabric. Perfect! Joe's grandma can cut exactly 7 strips
We let the number of years that the two jobs will have the same payment be denoted as t. Equating the wages of these two jobs after t - 1 years will give us an equation of,
22,000 + 4000(t -1) = 26,000 + 2000(t - 1)
The value of t from the generated equation is 3. Therefore, after 3 years the jobs will be paying the same wages.

=

Multiply both sides by 15
6 =

Multiply both sides by c
6c = 30 Divide both sides by 6
c = 5
